Default Microsoft Targets People Who Have Too Much Free Time

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=528&e=1&u=/ap/20040304/ap_on_hi_te/microsoft_visual_diary

Have you ever wanted to own a device which can be worn around the neck, automatically snaps over 2,000 images, and creates a digital diary of your daily life? Neither have I, but apparently the good folks at Microsoft believe this is something I can't live without. The device, called SenseCam, is essentially a small digicam that responds to changes in the users environment, such as sudden change in ambient lighting, increase in temperature, heart rate, sounds, body oder (Ok, I made that last one up. :wink: ), and records the information in an archive. Granted, there may be a practical use for this in the security field, but for the average end user this looks about as practical as a dead rat on a stick.

Your thoughts?
