Some blogs I like
February 11, 2008
Nabaztag – What does he do? Rather a lot it seems. This is the wifi rabbit thing that reads out RSS feeds and stuff. I wasn’t that bothered at first but what I didn’t know is it’s really well thought out. Check this video out. I particualrly like how they appreciate the absurdity of the situation. “Friends and lovers will communicate with each other… through a rabbit”. via Antonio

S’all very well, but have you actually got one? My friend has, and the main use seems to be to frighten his kids my getting the rabbit to say things like ‘Barney needs to go to bed’, out of the blue. Even if it is well-thought-out, it seems hard to see that you could come to actually use it as something you feel like you *need*.
