Sex - Mobile Style

Monday.

At the risk of sounding like a miserable old antisocial bogger I find the latest rumours coming out of the mobile phone companies disturbing. According to Silicon.com

Scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) are working on software that will get to know you as well as your best mate - and even offers you advice.

The software is designed to get to know people's habits by studying behaviour with pattern recognition software. Apparently "It might even pick up on a flirtation before you notice." What does it do? Vibrate like mad in your pocket or emit orgiastic moans?

To add insult to injury there are even sunglasses available that spot when someone is making eye contact and possibly flirting with you.

The World has gone mad. If you can't manage to spot when someone is making eye contact with you and you have to rely on a mobile phone to tell you that someone is flirting with you I suggest you wouldn't know what to do with the information were you to get it.

If I had to rely on a phone vibrating away in my pocket, bonking someone else's chunk of technology or a pair of sunglasses simulating orgasm every time a woman looked my way........ I'd realise it was time to give up and leave the phone and sunglasses in a bin somewhere so they could get it on in private.
