I spoke at a conference at Stanford last month and one of the gifts was this new little device called Striiv. It’s one of the many devices all betting that people want to put some little device on their body and measure stuff, like how many steps you took that day.
I've been following Jay Parkinson's blog for a while now and really enjoyed watching his presentation toTEDxMidAtlantic a few weeks ago. This post tells more about Jay's use of Striiv, than the device itself, but you can find out more at the Striiv website. I've wanted a good pedometer ever since walking became more of a challenge for me. This looks like an attractive device, and I like the way it adds a social purpose to its measurement, too.
