@merrierm @rupeshmalpani @MSFTResearch And even beyond #a11y, it's important to think about access to the hardware and infrastructure. These technologies are often expensive, need dedicated space, and may rely on fast broadband. There's interesting research into how we make this more inclusive.

@MSFTResearch One huge opportunity we have with the lockdown is the massive number of people having to live in telepresence. There are now so many people working and playing online now that natural experiments are everywhere!

@MSFTResearch As @Eyal_Ofek notes, rendering to more sense than just hte visual is very exciting right now. Beyond haptics there's also some great work in using spatial audio. Microsoft's Soundscape is a great example of the power of this in AR.

@chrisparnin @asbruckman so efficiency is much better for fixed.

[Ed Cutrell @edcutrell]

@chrisparnin @asbruckman in our case, survey was 1 Q, so spread ~= completion.

@Alan_yn_Aber Also, Word for Mac sux significantly harder than Word for Windows.

[Ed Cutrell @edcutrell]

@Alan_yn_Aber There's a whole set of Word voodoo. For my papers I put any non-text object in textboxes; can control much better.

[Ed Cutrell @edcutrell]

@DelightfulApps @mcphoo Awesome! :-)

@mcphoo Pynchon isn't everyone's cuppa, but if he hits your spot, it'll blow you away.

[Ed Cutrell @edcutrell]

@mcphoo For Pynchon, *The Crying of Lot 49*. Short tour de force. If you dig that, move on to *Gravity's Rainbow*

[Ed Cutrell @edcutrell]

@mcphoo For Murakami, start with *Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World* or *The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle*.
