The mouse and keyboard were invented before the Internet even existed. Since then, countless technological advancements have allowed for much more efficient human computer interaction. Why then do we continue to use outdated technology? Introducing Gmail Motion -- now you can control Gmail with your body. Gmail Motion uses your computer's built-in webcam and Google's patented spatial tracking technology to detect your movements and translate them into meaningful characters and commands. Movements are designed to be simple and intuitive for people of all skill levels. Familiarize yourself with some of the basic functionality of Gmail Motion using this printable guide of sample gestures. With it, you'll be able to start writing and responding to emails – with your body – in no time. Using Gmail Motion is not only safe but also healthy and fun. As with any physical activity, certain precautions are recommended. First, make sure to clear the area around you. Second, try to take short breaks every 30-40 minutes, just as you would if you were typing. And finally, take time to stretch after each session to give the muscles you'll be using some relief. This new motion detection technology doesn't stop with Gmail. We're excited to announce that Google Docs Motion will be coming later this year. Learn moreA new way to communicate

now this is what some good innovation but why do we need to spell the words using our whole body if we can do it with the use of our fingers. i think this is not very useful as an invention.
what if im trying to write "aprons for men"? What do i need to do to spell it? it would be better if the computer can read what is inside my mind and type it. :)
