Puppy Tweets


"Mattel's Puppy Tweets is a dog tag that you put on your actual dog; the tag then senses the pooch's activity levels, barking, and the like and sends any of a set of pre-set tweets to its own Twitter feed. Amazingly enough, all dogs type in English."
Ok so usually I find all things twitter related pretty ridiculous, but is it bad that I kind of want to try this?
Check out some other crazy gadgets at Popular Science's article on the Top 10 from the NY Toy Fair, including a pogo stick that jumps several feet in the air (you can do a flip on it! check out their video highlight reel for that...it would scare the crap out of me), electronic scrabble tiles that are kinda like a mix between scrabble and text twist, and waterproof playing cards.
