Internet of Things explained by Tim O’Reilly

We’re just starting to see the next wave: the Internet of Things.

Nike-iPod Sport Kit

Withings WiFi Body Scale

WideNoise - WideTag Inc

Every runner can monitor and share his performance just using the Nike+iPod Sport Kit.

We can share our weight on social network just using a connected body scale like Withings.

We can monitor and tweet sound pollution usign a simple iPhone + WideNoise App (still free on App Store) (full disclosure: I’m involved with WideTag Inc.).

On a recent post related to Dash7 I’ve talked about how smartphone enabled by Dash7 will give us a wide business opportunity, just thinking about the emergent LBS services.

Here we can listen Tim O’Reilly talking about the Internet of Things last week at MySQL Conference.

    Open, Open, Open ….. this will be the future :-)
