watch: electronic pickpocketing is crazy and scary

Tweet Normally when my mom sends an email warning me about something that could happen to me, it's old news. This time it was something I've never heard of.

Apparently for under $100, someone can get a scanner that can scan your credit card that's inside your wallet, inside your purse or pocket, as they walk by you.

Seriously. Look.



Andddd this is why technology is really getting scary. Besides a sleeve or something to protect it, how else do you make sure that doesn't happen?! It's not like you can have a bubble around you on a crowded street.

Wow. Wowwowwow.

nifty?: light up cereal boxes

Tweet I know this decade is going to put technology on a whole new level, but I never expected cereal boxes to be affected.

Pretty soon the cereal aisle is going to look like Las Vegas. Flashing lights, animation, and pretty things to look at EVERYWHERE.



Is this really necessary?! I mean sure, it's pretty. My ADD will freaking LOVE IT. But my wallet- not so much.

Cereal is already more expensive than it needs to be. This is just going to push me to the gigantic, cheapo bags of cereal if the prices change to match the fun.

I think I've officially become an old lady. Technology is scaring me.

nifty: airmouse

YES! Finally there's hope for saving my hands from that excruciating pain I hear so many people complaining about when they type too much.

I, along with 95% of this generation, is right on track to get the ever so fabulous Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Thankfully we're now one step close to preventing or delaying it thanks to the AirMouse.

This thing attaches to your hand like a glove and you just move it along your desk or wherever you please. The buttons are built in to your fingertips, and you can even type with it on! It's simple! Just throw the thing on, and do everything you need without having to conform your hand to shapes you don't want to!

It's just another step in technology that Steve Jobs did not come up with! HAHA Steve Jobs! In your face!

Soon we won't have to type, use a mouse, or do anything, ya know. I can't wait to be lazy.

love,
