A while back I was in a focus group for SNIF Labs (Social Networking in Fur), which is a startup that is creating a social network for dog lovers. Basically the Boston (the dog) will wear a SNIF Tag on his collar, which monitors his movements, activities, and contact with other canines and transmits this information to his very own website. I am looking forward to participating in beta testing because I would love to know what Boston does while we're away, other than fart and chew on his towel.
