Do We Want the Alarm Clock to Do It All, Though?
Thanks to Tyler over at Marginal Revolution for making me aware of this.
I'm a ThinkGeek enthusiast. My friend Joseph turned me on to ThinkGeek products and as other neophiles out there I have not looked back since.
Their digital products like watches are a nice fusion of precision and aesthetically pleasing styles and I am a regular customer.
Having said this, I was thoroughly amused by the sentence Tyler Cowen featured in his blog today about a ThinkGeek alarm clock. It says:
[It] connects via WiFi to your online bank account, and donates YOUR real money to an organization you HATE when you decide to snooze!
Bravo, Tyler, bravo!

This takes the cake, B! Sentence of the month, I say.

And to think that I almost ordered this.....
Crystal:
It's a product that ThinkGeek lists on the actual product page. They don't include cheeky, stock option commentaries, of course.
The interpretation of the product is Tyler's 'smart' reaction to it. As D put it, it's got to be a 'sentence of the month.'
whereas i would love to order such a thing. i'm interested in seeing which 'charities' get picked for me :)
what ThinkGeek products do you use/recommend?
