Hey all!
The kinect talk was good! I did play with kinect once or twice before, and it was a good experience. (Especially playing dance central!) I was surprised to see how the kinect can detect the skeletal structure of the human body and follow the movements so clearly. If the lines were white and outlined black, it would have looked like a real creepy skeleton! I guess it would definitely be a very different experience to develop applications for the kinect. Perhaps I would read up more about it after this semester.
The windows phone 8 talk seems to be more like promoting it to us as a consumer, seeing the way he really emphasized on the inbuilt features. But I did catch that there is inter-app communication, which is a new idea. I do agree that its great to have apps to sync with each other, imagine all the possibilities!
I have to keep this post a short one, I have so much to do and so little time..
