Tech Meets Everything Else

Gizmodo, calling itself "The Gadget Guide" is a blog that blends stories about technological items and real people/situations.

Example : Hero Cops Escort Cellphone Loudmouth Off Train.

While that sounds funny, it's really a true story about a chick talking super loud on the train, upsetting the other passengers, and was asked to leave. You have a phone and you have a person and you have a story.

*Sidenote - the flow of comments related to that story were so hilarious! One guy started the thread with a simple sentence and it sparked a plethora of conversation ranging from stereotypes, racial boundaries and logical conclusions.

Another Example : The Kindle Should Use Ricoh's New Color Ink E-Screen

Here we have a Kindle device and its lack of a function.

*Sidenote - One of the commenters had me ROTFL by saying

"I always hear people criticize the Kindle with something like 'It's all in black and white! I don't want to read that.' My canned response is always 'When was the last time you read a book with colored fonts!'"

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!
