I’m sure I haven’t mentioned Swype before, so here what it’s all about: a virtual keyboard where you type by swiping your fingers between the letters you want to write. Once you lift off your finger a SPACE is inserted and then you go on again and again writing the other words. For now Swype is only available for smartphones, but people are saying it’s good enough to replace any type of virtual keyboard out there.

    It’s that good that it showed up at the Microsoft Partner Conference (go to minute 2:58:30 here to see it in action). It’s pretty impressive, if you ask me, which makes me wonder if we will ever see it bundled officially by Microsoft, who might buy these guys (it always does that with small innovative companies). If you ever played with Swype keyboard let me know how it feels like by leaving a comment below.
