"What's that Mr. Paterson? No, we're not implanting a chip in you, it's an RFID tag. It's like TOTALLY different!"
As this imagined conversation indicates, RFID tags for use to prevent medical errors now have competitive pricing. User acceptance may be a long time coming, however.
For those addicted to XBox 360 (and still crashing in Mom's basement) help is on the way. A new parental timer, coming next month, lets parents limit how much time their kids spend on Guitar Hero and other such games. Or if you're over the age of 18 but want to limit your playing time for your own health (dash love life) you can also use this feature, as long as you make sure you tell the password to someone else and make them promise never to tell you "even if i tell you to tell me later and say that the deal is over, seriously we're not playing anymore, i want you to tell me" even then they shouldn't tell you the password. It'll be like your own personal epic struggle. Go to it, Odysseus.
