Are you sure you're not thinking of Apple's Knowledge Navigator concept?

This video is allegedly from 1987.

Edit: I changed the link to an expanded video from the early 90s(?) which contains the original video + some other mockup usage examples for OpenDoc




No, that's not it. The video I mean is completely different. It wasn't Apple. It was Microsoft, and it was introduced by Bill Gates.


If you find a video or documentation about it, please reply here, I'd be interested in finding out about it!


Great video. I love hearing predictions like this http://ytsnip.com/?v=9bjve67p33E&t=6m55s&e=7m1s. Impossible then, in my pocket today.
