This week the tech-adjacent media (which I personally define as internet-savvy pop culture sites like Jezebel and geek lifestyle sites like io9 and The Mary Sue) has been full of stories about a new software called iPet Companion. Animal shelters are using it to allow users to play with kitties at the shelters remotely- which is a win for everyone involved, as the kitties get entertainment, the users develop engagement with the kitties and are more likely to adopt (see this article about how online engagement drives sales) and the company, Reach-In, gets their software publicized.
Web app that remote-controls kitty toys is available now- and will shape your future.
