If you work+sit in an office desk, please walk!

About 100 years ago John Elfreth Watkins, civil engineer, predicted that "Everybody will walk 10 miles a day" [see here what else was predicted ]. Of course that is not happening. To add more to the non-walking culture, now a seat steered-segway-like mobility device has been invented.

While it is absolutely good for person with disabilities, I am not sure if these will be used in the offices by healthy people as shown in the video:



People: please walk! I am looking at the video and remembering the WALL-E kind of hover chairs with big people on it.
Thats why I had sketched a stick man stretching. Reminding myself.

Eight stretch that Blogger.Dai recommends.

Can you predict how much people will be walking everyday in the next century?
Anyone going to be on their hover chairs?

In Case of Emergency (ICE)

Last year, one of my friend suddenly felt dizziness. The condition got worse that we all prepared to get him into emergency. While we were doing so, I wanted to call his wife. I looked by her name into his cell, I could not get her number. He must have put under some kinda nick name.
I could not find it.
Imagine a situation when you needed help from stranger in such condition, s/he had to dial your relative or contact person. Surely, they do not have idea on what to do with your cell contacts. You can have hundreds of 'em.
The solution is to have one contact number added as ICE (in case of emergency).
Nobody knows when you may need help!

I think the cell software should be designed in such a way that user has to (optional) enter the ICE number when used for the first time. Having ICE on mobile can be helpful.
Helpful, especially when someone wants to get help for you.
