ParisLemon: A taste of web 3.0: Kevin Rose gets a cold, creates Twitter account for it, hundreds follow in minutes

    I imagine that an autonomous device such as a biometrics pendant or other uber-Nike iPod Health Kit won't be far off. Medical telematics / telemetry and remote sensing has enjoyed a serious tear over the past few years.


    So, your networked health device could provide injection of specific health characteristics to a federated updates service. This would be interesting for mild sickness applications. Again, it's just another area that integrative medicine could go -- holistic could encompass a range of metrics gathering from the patient.



    You could have @campbellsoups do a DM to @parislemonscold with links to chunky chicken soup coupon deals or a at the checkout private code tied to your affinity membership at the big box supermarket you use.



    Or put more simply, if Google can do Flu, why can't Nike do "you"?

    I saw that happen in real time yesterday, and I couldn't stop laughing. I was impressed at the quick response it got and the number of retweets I saw for it. If this is Web 3.0, I'm ready for more.
