Tile

The next time you lose your keys, don't say I didn't tell you about this baby: an etile that you can strap or stick on stuff to keep track of it. Not to put on your cheating boy/girl/friend. Just for stuff. Kids maybe.

Virgin Atlantic to implement Google Glass strategy

Well if this isn't the most unexpected, and to me weird, implementation of this technology!

Most of the passengers thought that it was "cool," after the nice people at VA explained that it was not an invasion of their privacy. LOL, there are cameras everywhere at Heathrow.
