Poken? What the Hell is Poken and why would you Buy Poken?




Someone just asked me if I wanted to touch pokens. Poken? WTH. I have never heard of this thing before. Am I that out of touch with modern technology?

People are running around with these little USB devices that look like animals and stuff and have 4 fingers. Then they touch them together ( a "High 4"?)and exchange social network information.

Remember when you used to just ask someone for their number? Now I guess you ask for their facebook or twitter? Only these poken things took away that step. You don't even ask- just touch each others poken. I want to laugh now, but I wonder if everyone is going to buy poken things. A year from now I might be the only person without one of these things. I already feel like I'm the only one without an iPhone.

  1. Well, it is kind of a cool idea. It seems to be similar to the BUMP app on the iPhone, where you and another person with Bump, hold your iphones in your hands and bump fists and it puts the person you bumped with into your address book with their phone number and email address. Kinda cool.
