  Windows Longhorn’s Aero Snap, circa 2005
Time: 14:53 EST/19:53 GMT | News Source: istartedsomething | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Days ago, a couple of then-Microsoft designers working on what was Windows Codename “Longhorn” at the time were granted a patent they filed all the way back in 2005. On closer inspection, their idea is reminiscent of the Aero Snap feature in Windows 7 today, but arguably more powerful.
