Showed a video about how Microsoft envisions the future. It's a lot of voice activation with a responsive computer. The computer had a high level of artificial intelligence. The future of user experience is like a super powered Siri or Google now.
Discovery and collaboration
Future is pushing knowledge in context. Requires a lot of tracking of individual likes and preferences. It's like a super powers version of auto correct, or how Google search completes the search for you.

For the time being out network data speeds prevent us from moving forward, but maybe in the future. http://www.redmondpie.com/browsar-for-iphone-and-ipad-takes-augmented-reality-and-your-facebook-profile-to-new-heights/
Skype translate
The video for the translation in real time over Skype was impressive and if you think about it could be pretty revolutionary. Duh.
"By leveraging existing librarians core competencies and by embracing the digital shift, new roles for libraries and librarians are emerging to create value."
