| CJ Corporations saw sales of snack sausages soar |
Finally, definitive proof Google Buzz is not utterly superfluous: my totally wired friend Janina Larenas turned her Buzz comrades onto this Clusterflock story about how sales of CJ Corporations snack sausages are on the rise in South Korea. Apparently the slim, meaty tubes, electrostatically speaking, are an excellent mimic of the human finger and useful as a "meat stylus" for gloved iPhone-users.
Google's sort-of translation of the original article noted the increase in sales during the glove-wearing winter months:
Max Peak 9 days CJ Corporation's main selling convenience store sales result of Sir Roy, had a special little despite two months from December to January last year, 11 billion revenue last year increased by 39% over the same period was.
A tasty treat and technological breakthrough in one neat package. Well done, CJ Corporation.
Girl, if you paid attention to twitter you'd've heard this story 3 days ago. Just sayin. ;P
