Three Technologies that will change photography
Quite an interesting article in the Microsoft PhotoBlog: Program Manager Jordan Schwartz describes 3 Technologies that will change Photography.
The three he cites are Mini Projectors, Liquid Lenses and GPS. And it's worth the link just for the mad-cool photo of the Mini Projector.
This would also be a great chance to link again to two amazing photographic technologies under development from Microsoft Research: Photosynth and HD View.
What do you think? Which innovations are really going to change the role photography plays in our lives?

sorry Rob, haven't found any yet. I just know it's out there as it was in Ray Ozzies keynote (see 9:53 @ http://astartupaday.wordpress.com/2007/04/30/mix-07-day-1-live-from-the-keynote/ ).
