I want one!

Here is an interesting recently published article on Salon about parents reaching for technological answers to their anxieties about the safety and whereabouts of their children. Certainly this is in keeping with the recent discussion touched off in this journal when there was an erroneous report of an abduction in a park nearby in my neighborhood (here and here).

But what really delighted me in the article was the news that Microsoft is apparently working on a version of the Weasley Clock.

I want one!



(Not necessarily to deal with anxiety over family member whereabouts, you understand. Just because it would be so much fun! And yeah, I definitely want to have a place on the clock where the hands can point to "Mortal Peril.")
