We're Going to the Dogs?

I never cease to be amazed at the "uses" of technology.  I suppose that for some, this is a good thing, but good gravy - this is almost too much to believe.

The Twitter fad has now mutated to our four-legged friends.  Specifically, some company, in their wisdom, have decided that there is a market for a wireless device that attachs to your dog's collar and Tweets to HIS twitter account when there is change in his activity - if he's sleeping, barking, presumably other dog-centric activities.

I think that we have officially gone too far.  Granted, there are probably dog owners out there that think that this is a great idea and all the power to them, I suppose, but geesh, is this what technology has really come to?  Where does it end, I don't know - and I think that I'm starting to get a bit scared of technology.  With all of the good it does, in so many ways, it degrades our society.
