Our friend Phillip Torrone's photo moblog has not only himself posting pictures but his Aibo posting pictures as well! Phillip tells us he uses a P900 Sony Ericsson phone to post, but the robot dog, Whuffie, posts "every few hours automatically using its built in camera, his built in WiFi emails it to the site." That's brilliant. Gothamist would like Phillip's real cat to post as well, but that would require PT to implant WiFi and create a special kitty keyboard, and that sounds like a project for 2005.
Speaking of dogs and technology, aren't the dog treadmills, seen last week at the Westminster Dog Show, so very Astro and George Jetson?




You can't mention robot dogs without mentioning robot cats. Take a look at these QuickTime videos of the NeCoRo:

wow....treadmills are no longer the sole domain of those backroom dog figting clinics...now any old dog can get diesel...
