I’m pretty bloody sure I’ve mentioned here that I read LOTS of blogs on a daily basis, a large number of which are tech related. When you read tech blogs, certain things keep popping up, one of these things being the Jawbone Up, I just blindly assumed it was a bluetooth device that you wore on your wrist, I blindly assumed that I really didn’t care and didn’t look any further into it. I was wrong and Jawbone, I’m really sorry because what you’ve made here is awesome.
Basically this sleek little sucker is a wristband that works hand in hand with an app for iPhone that is a Pedometer that will track your steps, distance, calories burned, pace, intensity level, active vs inactive time, GPS routes etc,
it’ll vibrate to remind you when you’ve been sat on your backside on your computer for too long so you get up and don’t die, it’ll track your hours slept, deep vs. light sleep, awake time and overall sleep quality and even wake you at the optimum time based on your sleep patterns
It also has a food journal function where you take a pic of what you’re eating at the time on your phone and write about it. It then produces a list of the foods that make you feel the best. It basically does a ton of really cool, innovative things that are all there to help you. In addition there’s a challenge mode with little helpful awards and a social aspect that means you can share challenges with your friends.
I thought I knew what this thing was with one glance and I was TOTALLY wrong! Check out the website for more info
