Connected+Products

The idea of connected products is a way to physically connect strangers through objects as the mode of connection. RFID tags within objects may begin to enable objects to have identities and connection to a larger network. Cell phones could play a part in the network connection by locating the objects on a real time location sensitive map to allow the owners of these objects to share, discuss similar issues, or exchange products. Some ideas of this theory have already been imagined by toy companies such as Neopets and Build-A-Bear where created a virtual pet with every physical counterpart to allow a network of virtual strangers to connect through means of their pet. However, imagine a world where one could bring up a map on their phone, see the general location of all the Build-A-Bears in a mile radius, and have set up play dates based on the bears (and childrens) similar interests. .......................................................................................................................................................................................................... ..........................................................................................................................................................................................................
