A look at an AR app I wrote some months ago In an ideal world, I'd just have to merely think of these words and they'd appear on the page. Or dictate them into something like Vlingo and that would speak to my laptop, which would speak to the server and magically write the post itself. That can't be that far away, can it? Looking back just 4 years, this post on Read Write Web gives an awesome indication of what the world of 2008 thought was possible (yes, it's for the other guys, but the principles apply to all phones) - physical browsing and digital buying?
