Microsoft Research has a thing called the Sense Cam that, as you walk around, it's taking photos all the time. And the software will filter and find the ones that are interesting without having to think, 'Let's get out the camera and get that shot.'

Bill Gates
Technology is unlocking the innate compassion we have for our fellow human beings.
Bill Gates
If something's expensive to develop, and somebody's not going to get paid, it won't get developed. So you decide: Do you want software to be written, or not?
Bill Gates
The vision is that people should have the ultimate in convenience. Being able to get the things they care about on the appropriate device.
Bill Gates
Philanthropy should be taking much bigger risks that business. If these are easy problems, business and government can come in and solve them.
Bill Gates
Humanity’s greatest advances are not in its discoveries – but in how those discoveries are applied to reduce inequity. Whether through democracy, strong public education, quality health care, or broad economic opportunity – reducing inequity is the highest human achievement.
Bill Gates
It's easier for our software to compete with Linux when there's piracy than when there's not.
Bill Gates
I failed in some subjects in exam, but my friend passed in all. Now he is an engineer in Microsoft and I am the owner of Microsoft.
Bill Gates
OK, I have a nickname. My family calls me 'Trey' because I'm William the third. My dad has the same name, which is always confusing because my dad is well known, and I'm also known.
