Live in Ikea

Remember when houses were built on strong foundation and including architectural elements of the time period in which they were constructed.  As the demand for homes grow cookie cutter neighborhoods sprung up all over the U.S.  Now you don't even need to buy a home from a real estate agent.  You can purchase it from Ikea and build it yourself (appliances included).

The rate at which new technologies are being created and revolutionized is astonishing.  We used to have to give computers commands through code and MS DOS was cutting edge.  Personal computers took over and we have been able to do and create more than anyone could think was possible.  But there is always more to be created and it is getting pretty crazy.

Microsoft had a keynote address in Barcelona which unveiled a lot of new projects that they are working on.  The one that this post is centered around can be seen below.
