Moo cards


A friend of mine just received a bunch of Moo Cards today.

Moo is an online printing service that lets you turn your Flickr photos into small business cards. (like half the size of regular ones). After you login to your Flickr account, there’s a nice drag, drop and crop interface which lets you choose your pictures for your cards.

You can order 100 of them for $20 and Flickr Pro users get 10 extra cards for free (wee). Quite frankly, they look awesome and are better than those “enterprise” black-and-white -and-looking-very-seriously-respectfull business cards.

I’m going to order a batch of them and show them when they arrive.

Large multi-touch interface




No, it’s not the iPhone.

Although it could be the future of computers in a few years time if things continue to evolve the way they are. Who could predict such tecnologies as the Wiimote, the iPhone or Windows Vista 10 years ago? (ok, forget the Windows Vista example)

The video I’ve found at InterActive (new) Media shows two people working together in a large computer interface using just their hands to swing documents from one side to another, open them, write notes or just close annoying popups.

Let’s see what the future holds.
