I want my scalps!

I first saw it during the European and regional elections a few weeks ago and noticed it again yesterday: the news crew of the Flemish TV channel VTM uses a Surface computer to display information. Yesterday, they used it to show what will be on the covers of the newspapers today (drag around, zoom in and out), but during the elections they used a custom application to visualize the progress of the elections per party. Check it out:

It finds lightbulbs.

Awesome. A bit pointless, but still awesome. I like how Surface is slowly getting more and more pervasive. All the more chances of a consumer device coming out.

My name has 9 letters. Coincidence? I think not...

Pretty neat. Smiley

while( ( !succeed=try() ) ) { }

I saw it to! But I must admit the other channel "één" did a better job (holographic like stuff) I'm looking for the video.

Edit: I can't find a video or even screenshot Sad
