Siftables (http://www.ted.com/talks/view/id/457)

They are computers you can interact with while they interact with each other.

What do you think this technology can achieve? I think its hella cool.

damn, thats awesome. I'm going to buy some.

[Hotrod]

Woah, that's really cool, an awesome addition to our current technology. :)

[Heathen]

I wonder how many can interact together?

Wouldn't it be nice to trade music with other people's siftables by simply bumping them? Or multiplayer games.

Or even trading information by simply bumping blocks.

its awesome.

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

Hmm, stealing credit card info would become easy....

[Heathen]

Oh? I am sure something like that would take passcodes to access.

[Sel]

thats pretty sweet

Computers that can interact with each other? Sounds good until they all combine into one big supercomputer that names itself Skynet!

I really like them... I don't know if they would be useful for a whole lot... but fun none the less.

[LlamaMaster]

Gimmicky but cool.

[Huero]

I seriously see this as the future of board games.
that would be AMAZING.

Gimmicky but cool.
I disagree, I think they have a lot of possibilities, and not just the thing itself, but I think a lot of different ideas/technologies can stem from it.

Pretty fuckin cool imo.

Well not yet, but if ever they make these into very small machines, you could end up doing a lot with them.
