Microsofts Picture Password: A Breath Of Fresh Air On The Lock Screen, Of All Places

picpassRemember that feeling you got back when Steve Jobs was unveiling the iPhone, and he did the "slide to unlock" gesture for the first time? I remember the way he said it - "You like that? Want to see it again?"Since then I haven't seen a lockscreen interface that has made me feel that same "how obvious, how elegant!" feeling - until today at the NVIDIA press conference, and later at the Microsoft keynote here at CES. It sounds a little silly, sure, making such a big deal of such a small feature, but it's just nice to see a genuinely natural and new way of doing something we've all done thousands upon thousands of times over the last few years.
