The Multi-Touch Office [Featured Workspace]

The Multi-Touch OfficeToday's featured workspace begs one question and one alone: Why settle for a multi-touch enabled tablet when you can have a multi-touch enabled console sporting a 42" screen?

Lifehacker reader kame9031 works at 31FPS, a company specializing in multi-touch interfaces, home automation, and related electronic design. We'd love to say that it's his great office with the plants and multiple monitors that caught our eye, but what really got our attention is the Cyclon—his mammoth 42" multi-touch computer running Max OS X. Unfortunately the great videos on the 31FPS site aren't embeddable so we can't show them off here. You can however check them all out by visiting this link—No really, go visit and see the videos.

If you want to read up on the Cyclon you can visit the 31FPS project page for the build here. Otherwise, check out the photos below of his office to see where the design magic happens.

If you have a workspace of your own to show off, throw the pictures on your Flickr account and add it to the Lifehacker Workspace Show and Tell Pool. Include some details about your setup and why it works for you, and you just might see it featured on the front page of Lifehacker.
