If you haven’t seen this video from Perceptive Pixel yet, then you just gotta take 5 minutes to watch it. It shows some of the most bleeding-edge UI development going on anywhere on the planet. Think iPhone, multiply by 10, and then add in a gi-normous display. I’m thinking that in, say, 3-5 years, everyday computer users will interact with files and data in this manner. I had a developer friend say to me the other day that he hated all the current emphasis on Web 2.0 UI gadgets/widgets. I told him to start lovin’ it now! They say success is at the margins, and in my opinion the biggest successes in the coming years of Web development will be had in the area of leading-edge UI development. So start planning your Perceptive Pixel-style UI’s now!
