This week some great things have already been brought to my attention by the ever unearthing HelloKinsella.

As we all know AR may be getting so, as Stevie Wonder would describe, yester-me, yester-you, yester-day (Sorry, Glasto is still repeating on me (in more ways than one)), but it’s full applications have still not yet been realised.  I myself have been chirping on about what the world will be with AR glasses.  Merely glancing in a corner could bring up your facebook, Google maps or phonebook, incorporating flawless voice and finger recognition, even using that painty nails tech.  Well, unfortunately I ain’t no Patrick Bovine, so I can not demonstrate this through the power of after effects, fortunately… I am not the only one who fantasises about pointless conceptual technologies.

Thank you Spannungs:

My next point (if you will excuse the pun), was supposed to be your cursor, (but bloody wordpress won’t let me play). 

In celebration of Michael Jackson’s life and in homage to the anniversary of his death, some clever chaps have created an MJ white glove cursor for desktops, websites and blogs (but not mine).

Here’s a little of what they have to say:

“The glove was a symbol of his artistry, genius and magic. Our tribute is a beautiful gesture to honour his music and contributions that made the world a better place.”

Cool, clever, simple, stylish, trendy and nearly nude.  I can’t think of many ways to improve this.
