But something about this description of the Hug Shirt simultaneously creeped me out and brought a bit of a tear to my eye: “When a friend sends you a virtual hug, your cell phone notifies the shirt wirelessly, via Bluetooth and then the next thing you know is that the shirt re-creates that person’s distinctive cuddle, replicating his or her warmth, pressure, duration and even heartbeat. And, yes, the Hug Shirt is fully washable.” In case you need to get any misdirected-text-message cooties off of you, no doubt. [LIFT]
