Link: Can This Little Thing Keep You Healthy? – Gadgetwise Blog – NYTimes.com
“Philips, the Dutch electronics company, believes it’s figured out a way to make people healthier, without forcing them to eat prepared diet foods or spend every day in a gym.”
This looks really interesting, and I like the idea of it telling you how many calories you’re burning, and the feedback part of it. But the whole “not spending every day in a gym?” I’m not sure if that’s how the company is positioning this or if that’s just a weak lede on the writer’s part, but really, if you wanna get healthy, you gotta work at it. There is no easy way, otherwise there wouldn’t be the obesity epidemic there is in this lovely country of ours.
