Disconnect to Connect
People spent most of their time on the net, follow the happs in the virtual world. Often, the missed out things around them, those things that is physically close to them.
This reminds me on #Foound again... haha...

Productivity in Future - Microsoft
Yeap, pretty realistic. A lot of projects similar to whats in the video, for example sixthsense - reading interactive newspaper, boarding ticket that updates on the move, drag and drop to and from desktop to mobile devices, or else from physical object to computer devices...
Just once thing I think is missing from the video, which currently is actively under research by many people - Brain Computer Interface (BCI). One of the demo is here.

Google Latitude
Hehe, just share with you what Google Latitude can do -
I like to keep track of my activities. Well, I don't really care about privacy (Google use for data mining?... nah, doesn't really matter to :] ) What really important to me is that I want to be able to track, or keep a record of my activities.
Well this reminds me of a talk that I went to at Tertiary Tech Conference (TTC). One of the speaker actually set up webcam in front of his desk 24/7 to let the whole world watch him while he is doing his research paper. His idea is to let the whole world know that he is doing his work, and thus prevents himself from slacking.
Oh, another this that I share with people - my workout records. I track my workout history, via endomondo. Ah, quite sometime already since my last run. Sometimes lazy to bring my phone out with me to record then runs. But what I like is the "burn-out" events in endomondo, and how I can view my friend's workout, and... compare my stats with them... haha.
- track the time you spend on work, and
- track the time you spent out.
- Share you public location by embedding badge in your websites.
- Set up location alert to get nearby friends alerts.

Why bother about losing privacy when it increases your productivity.---
