Excuse me, dahrlings, but...

Gadgets As Fashion?

Is it just
me, dahrlings?

I never
thought I'd say that, much less think it, but is fashion going too far? I
strapped on my computer the other day, and frankly Pumpkins, it's not me.

I'm
predicting that the wearable technology fad will go the way of bell bottoms faster than you can say Kardashian mobile
backend. And that's a mouthful. People are already getting over their Dick
Tracy watches. There seems to be a 6 month wearout factor where you just stop
playing with the gadget. Like the train set or the latest pull-on Kelly Girl
with flexible demodulator I got my ex.

The point
is, dahrlings, we shouldn't get our knickers in a strap-on about the booking
capabilities of a watch. Yet. It's all a building block to something newer.
Better. We just don't know what. The prediction is some kind of cyborg
situation where we and the technology are one on a cloud. (I think I saw that Star Trek episode. Busty women on a far flung planet offering eternal bliss...)

Ivanna Gabbalot

Columnist

Part legend, part myth, all woman: Ivanna Gabbalot is OJ’s gossip columnist and considers herself the industry’s conscience. Equally annoying to Open Jaw management and inflated egos in C-suites everywhere, Ivanna works infrequently, preferring to snipe from the sidelines.
