Microsoft Story Labs explores tomorrow’s technology today with .future podcast

Laurent Giret

Earlier this year, the Windows Insider team launched a new monthly podcast which has since become a great source of information for Windows enthusiasts. If you enjoy listening to technology podcasts but still looking for something less Windows-focused, Microsoft also got you covered with a brand new podcast called .future.

This latest creation is the result of a partnership between Microsoft Story Labs, technology reporter Cristina Quinn and Gimlet Creative, and according to the first teaser .future will be all about questioning how we all make the future happen. Here is the official description:

The future isn’t random; it’s the result of the choices we make now. Choices about how we think, work, communicate and learn.
Join Microsoft Story Labs and Gimlet Creative for .future, a new podcast that explores tomorrow’s technology today and how it will affect generations to come. Hosted by science and technology reporter Cristina Quinn, the show will feature conversations on the most transformational technologies of our time, from artificial intelligence to Minecraft to cybersecurity.

It’s interesting to see Microsoft experimenting more with podcasts this year, even though podcasts support on Windows 10 still leaves much to be desired. If you’re interested, the first episode of .future will drop on Wednesday, June 28, and you can already subscribe to the podcast via RSS or iTunes.
