"I envision a day when people meet each other and their filters immediately identify their likes and dislikes. Then, the users can talk about what they have in common rather than bickering or wasting time on irrelevant issues." Next up for Gates is a system that will display text-based ads in Zuckerberg's eyes. So, for example, when he's talking to his mom, an ad in his right eye will display "I want a Nintendo Wii", while an ad in the left eye will display "Kiss me on the right cheek if you want tulips for Mother's Day or the left cheek if you want waffles". Looking ahead, the eye displays could help negotiate discussions between friends by putting up information about the brand of clothes you're wearing or music you recently stole online. "Isn't this green sweater nice? Ask me where I bought it. Shake my right hand for an e-coupon." Gates explains that, "People shouldn't have to dedicate brain cells to telling their peers about their favorite bands or movies. That's the type of stuff that can be handled in software."
