Anand Agarawala: BumpTop desktop is a beautiful mess

In this modern day, people rely on computers for doing their work almost more than cars for transportation. When you think of all the technologies that have come out, the computer truly is one of the most prevalent. I decided to listen to Anand Agarawala's talk about the "BumpTop" desktop. To me, this seems like a very helpful tool for organizing your desktop, although some of the concepts that are available seem to be more for playing around than for actual work. Some of the features that would be helpful would be like being able to flip through all of the files in a folder at one time. Being able to flip through your files like a book rather than always having them pull up in front of you would make things much easier to look through. I believe that the design of this desktop meets the expectations of the modern "cool" look of technology, rather than sticking with the "normal" start, menu, and go buttons that everyone is used to seeing with computers. I think this invention could go far for the work environment, as well as for people that just want to play around on their desktop, like being able to crumple up your final paper!
