The Committee to Nuke Elysium

Research In Motion unveiled a concept design for a phone called the BlackBerry Empathy, which is based on a wireless “mood ring.” (No, I’m not making this up.) The ring somehow gathers your biometric data, which is sent to the phone. The phone would also detect the emotions of people near you, and would let you know if they’re angry, sad or bored; it would do the same with your social networking contacts. The idea is that everyone would know via Facebook how everyone else was feeling, based on biometric data.
