Some of us complain their doctors are too stiff, lack warmth and are too robotic. But calling such doctors “robots” may be a disservice to RP-Vita — the latest telepresence, healthcare bot from InTouch Health and iRobot.
RP-VITA (Remote Presence Virtual + Independent Telemedicine Assistant), unveiled this week at the Clinical Innovations Forum in Santa Barbara, is a remote-controlled telepresence robot that combines InTouch’s “telemedicine” technology and the autonomous navigation innovations introduced in iRobots’ AVA robot at CES in 2011.

I'm an IT Support tech at a school district in Maine, and we're running into a problem with old VHS tapes. As time goes on, more and more of them are deteriorating and ultimately failing. Many older educational VHS titles aren't available on DVD, so purchasing new digital copies is out of the question. Adding to the complexity is the fact that the individual teachers, not the schools, own many of the VHS tapes in question. Is there any way to legally preserve these tapes, either through conversion to DVD or some other way?

It looks like Google is not only still working on Google Chrome OS, it is firmly committed for the forseeable future. The OS has new features and the associated hardware has a new name "Chromebook." This, folks, is serious.

If you're reading this post, then you love technology as much as I do. That's why even a glance at the headline makes me feel a little queasy. I cannot imagine giving up my iPhone, Android tablet, TweetDeck, Facebook, BlackBerry Bold or any other digi gear or technology for any length of time. But this guy is recommended it--if only to gain a little perspective. Things that make you go, "Hmmmm."
