Hi. Thank you, Rashmi and BayCHI for inviting me. It’s really an honor to be talking about ubiquitous computing in ther its birthplace. I’m dividing tonight’s talk roughly in half. In the first half, I’m going to talk about some of the high level ideas we’re developing and working with, in the second I’m going to talk about some specific techniques we’re using and give you some examples of how we’ve used them in the last year.
