USB Puppet

by Shawn @ 10:35 am · filed under Tech Stuff, Toys

If you are *really* dorky you can now get a USB puppet that stands up when your friend comes online via IM and "dies" when they go offline.


I kind of want one of these actually. :)

    WTF?! That puppet freaks me out :) Imagine having one for each friend in a list of 20 or more :) It would be like a “punch that monster” game :)

    ^^ Forget having one for each friend. Become an installation artist and have one for each active member of the forum. Just think about it: over 10,000 puppets in a room, definitely a site to behold.

    Puppet targeting would be much better than Geotargetting. :P

    Isn’t there a limit of 256 per USB port? Would cover all of Shawns new garden with hubs… Might be more for Alek - those interactive geeky things.

    Availabot 2.0 will actually speak the words you type apparently… Imagine, 10K + availabots hooked up to DP chatting…
