Very nice, even if they do seem a bit simpering.

Orbital do a very good version live
Glastonbury
My daughter was thrilled when Matt Smith came on stage for this one - we had sacked off Stevie Wonder to see Orbital on the Other Stage - I have seen Orbital many times (including every performance at Glastonbury) - they do a very good show - the two chaps in the band have the surname Hartnoll - as did an early Doctor

Not quite. The first Doctor was William Hartnell.

I thought it was Kildare

Not forgetting that it is on again at 6.30 pm tonight.
Can't wait!

DD, something that might be up your street but maybe you've seen the books? We were in Waterstone's yesterday and they had a display table containing about eight books or more on the good Doctor's stories. They look like new prints rather than reprints of books from way back when. Leastways, the covers looked quite modern.

A video of hot blonde twins on the Internet which is disappointing.

I really like 3D style like in Windows 7, VS 2008, VS 2010, don't like flat style like in Windows 8, VS 2012. What about you?
I think Microsoft is skilling 3D style, many main products of Microsoft are being 'flattened'...
Is this a new trend???
Please share... Thanks.
PS: There are some things made black and white... getting rid of the colorful world...

The design seems to have gone with the economy, it has been flattend and gray..

Thanks for your share, vote you up!!!

As a developer I tend to leave those sorts of niceties to the user/project manager.
Really it all comes down to what is easiest for the user, the pretty interface may make an impression at the beginning but I tend to err on the side of the ease of use rather than the aesthetic of a piece of software.
If metro works better in a particular situation then go ahead and use that style.
I am one of those who still finds a keyboard/shortcut faster than a gesture or a right click on a mouse...

So do I.

I don't either but it seems to be the trend. Google and Apple seem to be going this way as well.

I'm sorry but if flat style is a new trend, 3d style will be obsolete, you will have little chance to like it as you said, I understand that this style is more suitable for phones and tablets, that's why it's a new trend? The only disadvantage I can find in 3d style is it requires more rendering processing, more cpu usage and ram memory.
I know Windows 8 will help my laptop faster, consume my ram lesser and make my laptop battery life longer, but I have still not installed Windows 8 yet, simply I don't find any beauty in its flat style. My laptop is powerful enough to run Windows 7 and any other 3D style OS, I can accept the long startup time of Windows 7 (about 2 minutes for my laptop), accept all other disadvantages of Windows 7 to enjoy its beauty which I can't find in Windows 8 (maybe also in next versions of Windows). However, if it is a trend, I will force myself to like it, there's no way. I think Windows 7 has the best UI of all because it seems that Windows 8 and next versions of Windows are certainly flat, flat and flat (metro style?).

Well,
I have to say that at start it seemed strange to me (I develop on a Windows phone 8 at work), but then when I saw my friend smartphone (Android) I have to say that I felt like the android look like this[^] while the flat style is a lot more elegant and clean.
For desktop I have Windows 8 but I pratically never use metro style application I think they're just not suited for a desktop
But for smartphone and tablet i think it's way more nicer the flat style

|
You're right, I also think it's more suitable for smart phone and tablet, you deserve my up vote

3D for sure. While I'm a big fan of the Android architecture, I much prefer the iOS UI.

Options. The user should be able to choose. I like my UI the way I like my women. (Kent is so gonna kill me.) http://www.quotes.net/quote/45650[^]
Seriously, I don't like flat UI because I've been using Windows for so long. Having flat UIs for new users is fine, but don't make us old dogs have to change. They didn't stop making manual transmissions when automatics were invented.

Really the thing I don't like is the way Microsoft is catering to the dumbest user and giving us a Fisher-Price interface, where certain things are done automatically, and if a choice doesn't appear it is because they don't think you are smart enough to handle it.
What they are giving us is an interface that "anybody" can understand which does not cater to most of the people that are CP members. We may develop software but we aren't "users".

Dimensionless, monochromatic user interfaces simply mirror the continuing souless trend towards the genericized illusion of personalization.

I'm waiting for 4D.
Nothing cooler than a UI that moves around on its own volition.
