Wearable Computers Are Our Future
from the but-for-now-they're-just-for-blue-collar-workers dept
An interesting combination of articles in the NY Times. First is an article talking about the future of wearable computers in a way that makes it sound like we're all going to be living in Neal Stephenson novels. Then, there's an article explaining how wearable computers have caught on in blue collar jobs. I can't wait until all the dot com geeks get all excited to be wearing the same computer their telephone repairman had been wearing for years.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
