atw: O.T? Taking "User Friendly" computing just that bit too far.

Scientists embrace plan for cyberhugs
<http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/200511/s1518585.htm>

This is almost certainly going to have "other applications"
on the Web and in video gaming, many of which I do not
even want to contemplate!  (Cyberdaks for a start.)

"One day, you're going to get caught with your cyberhug
interface down!"  A real case for antivirus software!

A cyberhug interface could, however, make the Help Desk
experience a lot friendlier.  They could even adapt it to
gently "cyber throttle" complete numbskull users, through
a cyberhug neck brace without actually hurting anyone.

Avoid Chinese made cyberhug bracelets though, they could
give you a Chinese Burn.

;-)

Cheers,

Michael
