XUI – the new “bob”?

While Microsoft sometimes gets a bad rap for UI (and rightly so in many cases), they also do some incredibly imaginative thinking.  Right now, it seems they are thinking about the new user interface (from an article by Long Zheng):

XUI, which stands for experience-user-interface in theory is the next evolution of computer-human interaction from natural user interfaces (NUI) like Microsoft Surface which itself is an evolution from graphics user interfaces (GUI) like Windows.

He has some awesome videos about what MS is doing right now.
