"Since I Mentioned Bluetooth Dept.: The technology is finding use as a way to keep from losing children at the zoo—specifically, the Ålborg Zoo in Denmark. The zoo lets you put dog tags on your kids, and the areawide Bluetooth system keeps tabs on them. Information concerning the whereabouts of a lost child is passed via SMS on parents' cell phones. This technology could come in handy at Toys "R" Us, since the company redesigned its stores with aisles like labyrinths, in which losing kids is easy. Eventually, of course, Bluetooth will be used to locate everyone so those black helicopters can find you effortlessly." John Dvorak
