Last time one of the big tech companies made a sci-fi reference for a new product it was a failure :( remember Google Wave?
One of these days, someone will build our dream Sci-Fi future. At any rate, Cortana is a good name.
- dnautics 13y agoperhaps i'm geek-culture-ally handicapped here, but what did Wave reference?
- latortuga 13y agoI believe it was a reference to the fictional communication system in Joss Whedon's short-lived TV show, Firefly.
- eieio 13y agoOh wow, I made a comment the other day about how Wave always made me think of Firefly. I had no idea that it was true. In retrospect it makes complete sense.
- dnautics 13y agohm. I watched that show twice through, but didn't catch that reference, possibly because I watched it after wave came out.
