“Front-end” user interface projects are an exercise in lift vs. gravity, whether you are on a quick sprint or a more relaxed release cycle. Busy design and development peeps pouring their souls into a project can feel saddled with negative vibes; a good product manager reminds them of the positive.

Well, Bill Gates said it during his CES keynote, which sucked by the way. Surprise. The Wiki has a page on it, however anemic, and there’s a group called NUI (e.g. – Natural User Interface) that has assembled to explore this emerging area of interaction design.
So I of course explored last night; thinking what is it? A new word for the same old shat, or something truly different? And if it is different, how different, and how does it compare with what we’re familiar with today, or is that not fair to ask? NUI is actually pronounced ‘new’ – so maybe someone’s thought real hard about this, being new that is.
