Poken - USB gadget for sharing social network profiles
The other day on the network I saw this kind of toy, became interested and ...
... the first thing I suggested was the beginning of a new epidemic, akin to Pokémon and Tamagotchi. Whether the Poken will replace Futurikobot on our tables - time will tell, but I personally refuse to believe it.
So the Swiss team Poken SA has launched DoYouPoken, a startup and a device for it in 4 basic guises - bees, pandas, humanoid and voodoo dolls. Why exactly four? Probably by the number of human temperaments.

The exchange of profiles of social networks occurs through RF technology during the short-term connection of the palms of 2 devices, such as "give five!"
Next, Poken connects to the computer and the information is already processed on the server, that is, the profiles are connected to each other. If profiles from different networks, it is proposed to register the missing account.
This method, according to some allegations, is gaining popularity in European schools and colleges with teenagers and students.
The usb gadget itself feels equally comfortable on machines with Mac OS, Windows and Linux, and the user is offered to use any of 5 languages, including English and Chinese (not Russian), you can immediately see that the creators of Poken have big ambitions!
While Poken only supports social networks LinkedIn, MySpace and Facebook, however, the developers said that the list will be supplemented.
Internal memory is enough to store 64 profiles, and the batteries for six months of normal use.
Attached to the keys or to the mobile phone as a keychain.
The cost of the gadget is £ 12.95
