A dog’s life online
Boston Globe – Nov 11, 2007
The SNIF tag is about the size of a matchbox and can be affixed to a metal sleeve that the dog’s collar threads through. Inside is an accelerometer – a sensor that tracks movement. The tag can tell when a dog is sleeping walking or running. Tags must be within 80 feet of a base station which looks like a mod-style pepper grinder. The tags report back real-time information on the dog’s habits to the base. The base which is connected to the Internet then relays the information to the website. Unlike the global positioning system the tags don’t “talk” to satellites so you can’t tell precisely where your dog is – only that he’s inside or outside of the base’s range… The base station doubles as a charger. SNIF chief executive Noah Paessel says the tag and base station should sell for about $199. nce on the website a dog owner can see whether Rex is having a nap or chasing the cat around the house. (Another angle is ensuring that the dog walker is actually giving Rex that hour-long constitutional you’re paying for. )And when a tag-wearing dog encounters a playmate who is also sporting a tag the two tags exchange information and a light on each tag flashes. Later the pup’s owner can go online and view Rex’s friend list – and also see information about his friends’ owners. That opens up the possibility of organizing regular play groups or someone to look after Rex the next time you go away for the weekend.

Tim Tebow VII broke out. Never mind that it was simply two teams trying to win a seventh game or that Meyer’s Gators were clinging to fading SEC hopes or that the Spur Dog’s Gamecocks were trying to avoid a four-game losing streak. Spurrier hadn’t had one since his first season – at Duke.
