Washateria Futurama!



An Austrian firm called TouchSkin has moved us a little bit closer to our inevitable utopian future by introducing a "water drop" interface for washing machines.

I predict that in a few years, we'll all have these in our living rooms and be using them to wash our, uh, clothes...
