Apples Time Machine
Apples upcoming operating system, Leopard, will feature a backup system with a brilliant name: Time Machine. This new feature lets uses an inovative interface to let users search for the last time they saved a document, picture or any other file on their Mac.
Apple developers at the WWDC were thrilled by the user interface of the Time Machine feature. With a click on a the Time Machine button the new feature brings up a series of windows stretching over the horizon, with a picture of a black hole off in the distance. Each window represents a day or another fixed period of time, and in order to find the desired file, the user "flies" back in time toward the black hole, with a time line on the right side of the screen marking progress as the days sweep underneath.
