Tweeting shoes

Nike-plusNo, I don’t mean that weird squeak shoes sometimes make when your walking, I mean your shoes are Tweeting on Twitter.

Probably the most mainstream of the techie shoes, Nike+ has been around for a while. Its earliest incarnations were all about iPod connectivity, but the latest generation of Nike+ — of which the Nike Zoom Vomero+ 4 (above) is a happy poster boy — not only tracks your fitness data once a Nike+ sensor is inserted, but can automatically make Facebook updates and Tweet your status out. It even has its own social network. The shoes cost $135; a standalone sensor costs $19.
