snif SNIF Tag: A social networking opportunity for dogs

This is beyond the most stupid thing you can ever do and while I do know that there are people, who care more for their dog than their dying next door neighbor, this is beyond all logic. SNIF Tag is a way in which you would know every movement of your dog and its activities throughout the day by monitoring it on your system as the data is transmitted through its SNIF collar. The SNIF tag uses and accelerometer to guess what your dog is most likely doing and this information is transmitted to the base station wirelessly and then to you.

If your dog is out of the ‘coverage area’, then the information is stored in its collar and passed on to you when it is back. There is more to the SNIF tag though as when your dog passes another dog that is wearing a similar collar, they automatically become friends on their social networking pages. Then you can probably meet the cute owner of the dog and get together… or maybe not. The SNIF tag starter kit costs $200 for a limited time, and it costs $89 a year to access some unspecified “premium” online features.

Irrespective of what you do and how much your love your flea bag, if observing its live movement is a part of your day, then it is you who desperately needs social networking, not your dog. Trust me on that mate!
