From prose to prototype, there was something of a running science fiction theme for this episode of On The Verge. A trip to Industrial Light and Magic, live demos from Microsoft principal researcher Andy Wilson, a lively discussion on the science fiction gadgets we wish were real, and a very special contest / "GIF-away" you definitely want to hear more about. Get the details about how you could win a Ford Focus EV here: http://www.vergegifcontest.com

    OMG!!! Joshua! Please, i love your show and the verge site is almost perfect. But i was really interested in what the microsoft guy had to say and show. And you just COMPLETELY ruined it with trying to make fun of EVERYTHING. Come on, why invite such a interesting person and just interrupt with bad jokes. Come on!

    The Verge is such haters of WP... :( It's sad. WP is my favorite by far, after using all 3 major OS's
