Kea stealing my lens hood

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kea
The Kea's notorious urge to explore and manipulate makes this bird a pest for residents and an attraction for tourists. Called "the clown of the mountains", it will investigate backpacks, boots, or even cars, often causing damage or flying off with smaller items.

Microsoft Research's Bill Buxton on Natural User Interfaces

Excerpt from http://research.microsoft.com/en-US/about/feature/nui-video.aspx

In a video about new ways to design natural user interfaces, Bill Buxton, principal researcher for Microsoft Research, explains how engineers can use a combination of interactive gestures and communication methods to enable a society of appliances to assist users of technology.

"Its not about speech, its not about gesture, its not even about the phone, and its not about human-to-human communication, Buxton says. How these things work together in a natural and seamless way that reduces complexity for the users—thats what were about. Getting these things right opens up another dimension in how we have technology integrated into our lives."
