Web designers rejoice. The jaggies are gone! Fonts in Chrome on Windows no longer look like they’re from the XP-era. Thanks to a new experimental flag added to the latest version of the Google Chrome beta (35.0.1916.27 beta-m), Chrome is finally rendering fonts with the advanced DirectWrite font rendering engine. For a before and after comparison, here’s one I compiled with the Windows.com website

[flv:msrkinect.f4v 670 380] Like a good artistic visualization, you can never get bored of looking at how the Kinect works behind-the-scenes. Of course pretty colors and dancing skeletons is captivating, but the hard science behind just how the Kinect on XBOX 360 can recognize human poses in real-time from a single depth-image is equally fascinating. To quench the Kinect thirst, Microsoft Research
I recently upgraded my home internet from a measly 2Mbit upload to a more respectable 40Mbps on the Australian National Broadband Network. I’ve been thinking of good uses for this newfound upstream bandwidth and one idea was to off-site my IP security camera footage. I’ve previously used cloud surveillance storage services like CameraFTP but the retention time (how long the photos are stored) were
It turns out 2019 is getting closer every day. At the moment, Microsoft’s chief research and strategy officer Craig Mundie is doing the rounds at a number of prestigious colleges in the States showing off Microsoft’s vision for technology to solve the world’s biggest problems. Of course, one must use the latest in natural user interfaces for this task. A feature of this year’s tour appears to be a
When Microsoft decides to imagine the future, it never fails to impress. Not only do you have some of the smartest people envisioning what’s possible, but they also invest so much into communicating these ideas through sights and sounds which the production value can be compared to most blockbuster sci-fi films. Today at the Wharton Business Technology Conference, Microsoft’s Business Division pre
After hearing about the impact and success it had in Microsoft, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on prototyping in PowerPoint 2007. Amongst a few things Manuel Clement suggested a few weeks ago in his presentation about “wireframe prototyping with Office PowerPoint 2007”, was to create a toolkit of commonly used GUI components to copy and paste when designing the prototype screens. That’s what I se
If I told you there was a public presentation and arguably demonstration of Windows 7, you probably wouldn’t believe me. Which is why I had to share this video with you. Thanks to DigitalDud on Channel9 for noting, on October 13 last week, Microsoft’s distinguished engineer Eric Traut gave a presentation at the University of Illinois about Microsoft’s virtualization technology and also mentioned W
If you don’t fancy the back story, skip directly to download. Sometime after the launch of XP, somewhere in Redmond, someone on the Microsoft design team was in the progress of developing something for Media Center. It was believed to be too powerful for public consumption and forever archived in the servers at 1 Microsoft Way. Now, a young hobbit man by the name of W3bbo saw light of this unheard
Unless you’ve been hiding under a huge stack of free Ubuntu CDs, you would have known that last week MSNBC reported an ‘one-hit-wonder’ story about the failure of Windows Vista’s speech recognition technology. MSNBC called the demo an embarrassment, when technical glitches created many recognition anomalies resulting in several amusing representations of spoken words. Many mindless Microsoft bashe
Here’s several Windows Vista screencasts focusing on various important new features: Aero Glass, file management, guided help, tablet PC functionality, sidebar, improved search indexing and Media Center. These are just a taste of some of the new features you will find in Windows Vista. These screencast was done in quite a hurry, so I apologise for the lack of depth and variety, had a bit more time
