The Future Search Engine?


The video in this post is from Project Natal (a new form of gaming interactivity for the X-Box).  The concept illustrated is cool in and of itself - no doubt.  But - what if you could use this to search the internet?  Yeah - it's nice to just get straight to the point sometimes when doing an internet search.  But, it'd also be nice to run some ideas past an impartial party while you're trying to find that special gift for someone or looking for the name of that song you loved 15 years ago but all you remember are a few lyrics.  I imagine that Milo could be programmed with some artificial intelligence to do searches in the background while you were bouncing ideas off of it during the course of a completely natural conversation.

Anyway, take 5 minutes out of your day to check out this video.  It's pretty sweet.  If this is the future of interactive gaming, then we're a lot closer to what we were fed 20 years ago in sci-fi movies than I realized.  Heck, I might have to go get an XBOX on GP.
