No we don’t have to be tagged just yet, but the new Violet Mir:ror allows you to tag everything you have, using RFID. The Mir:ror comes as a usb base station and stamps containing the RFID chip and allows you to sync items to your computer.
For example, you have a bunch of photos you have uploaded to flickr. You also have a photo album with the same photos as the album you uploaded. You can tag the old style photo album with a tag, so when you bring it near the base station it opens a browser, goes to flikr and retrieves the album you have in your hand, but in digital goodness. You could also tag your iPod so once you wave it near the Mir:ror, it brings up the latest albums from your favorite genre of music. The possibilities are only limited by our ability to think what to do with it. The Violet Mir:ror comes to the US on October 27th at a price of $69.99.
The one thing it won’t do that we all could use is, tag our keys or remotes so we can find them once we misplace them.
