The Future Of The Desktop ?
 
 

The way we organize information did not change for a long time. We are somehow stuck with the folder metaphor and explorer style navigation.

Scopeware Vision. is an attempt to change that. Is it the future of the Desktop ?

The philosophy of Scopeware is based on the basic premise that information should be woven into a flowing narrative stream with a past, present and future that you can tune in from anywhere. This addresses the fact that many people prefer to organize information as a Heap - "Heap People".

Dr. David Gelernter, world-renowned Yale professor and Chief Scientist of Scopeware is since a long time researching this field.

The current version of scopeware combines a visual semi-3D user interface with a desktop search engine to let users organize and find information on their desktop.
Vision search results take the form of a stack of thumbnails.

You can try Vision for free to find out if it is indeed the future of the Desktop for you. I think it is, but the it will only be really effective if 3D technology gets powerful enough to build information management environments.
Scopeware Vision Personal v1.3 is selling for $29.95.
