Hold on… my body’s ringing. And, as we range further out into
the weird world of tech, Nokia is bringing us vibrating tattoos … I
don’t think Mr. Bell saw this down the road when he said, “Mr.
Watson, come here. I need you.” But, as far as the next illogical
step for where communications technology is taking us, I reckon it
follows.
Yep, I'm sure folks will rush right out there to be the first to
get hard-wired. Literally. The idea is to use a special tattoo ink
with magnetic properties (first question -- if you're tattooed with
magnetic ink, would you always walk either north or south?) and when
you're receiving a call, a tiny impulse runs through you. It's gonna
run through you, not me, 'cause I don't like phones, anyway, and I
sure don't want a case of the jumpin' leg jitters every time the
phone rings. Can you imagine telemarketers?
Supposedly, just like with regular ring tones, you could set it up
so you perceive different impulses depending on who's calling you.
Adds a new twist on phone sex, doesn't it? And, what happens during
an electrical storm? And, how do you plug in accessories? Just
asking.
Don't get me this for Christmas. Please.
'til next time... Adios.
