InterPad: All Four On One Interactive Pad Concept

on 05/24/2010, filed in Home > Concepts

The InterPad concept is a rather weird one, and seems to be designed for folks who are hooked on sites and services such as Facebook, YouTube, iTunes and your webcam. It allows you to switch between said programs and services easily, while allowing you to configure music, video, camera and games options via additional downloadable hotkeys. Looks like a good companion device for a home theater PC, albeit looking like a toy gadget.

Facebook: Facebook is a Social Networking service launched in 2004. It was founded by Mark Zuckerberg, Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes. At first, only students from Harvard could join the service, but over time more users were allowed to join. Today, Facebook remains the leader in social networking, but most importantly, it is the top online identity provider as the overwhelming majority of Facebook users have registered using their real identities.If you have a Facebook account, you can use Ubergizmo's Social Reader.

YouTube: is a video-sharing website where users can upload videos. It is currently (7/2012) the largest such site, and was founded in 2005 by Chad Hurley, Steve Chen, and Jawed Karim, who all worked at PayPal before. While it mainly featured movies from regular folks (and some illegal user uploads) at the beginning, but eventually YouTube grabbed enough market share to attract higher quality content over the years. Now, there is something for everyone, and YouTube continues to push for high-quality content, while keeping the support from amateur video-makers. The company was acquired by Google in 2006 for $1.6B.
