Sure, it’s nice for anyone who wants to keep track of plants in their house by going onto their computer or cell phone to check the twitter page, but couldn’t they also just incorporate some kind of indicator on the device itself? When you walk by and it says “water me,” you know to water it right then and there. But if I’m at work and my plant says to water it, and I get home, I might forget.

Really, cmon guys, more practicality and less “cool” factor.
