The Key to Happiness? Not Losing Your Keys

23rd July 2017

Lileks.

Last Saturday I stood in a store looking at a thin white plastic square that sings a song when you press a button on your phone. You’re thinking: “Wow, I’ll take two.” But it gets better: You stick the square on something you might lose and want to find. Keys. Dental plates. Dogs. Perspective.

Endless uses! Ever found yourself looking for the TV remote and thought, “It’s probably behind the sofa cushion. If only I could take out my phone, enter my code, call up an app, log in, dismiss the screen that says there’s an update, dismiss the screen that asks for a rating on iTunes and then push a button that makes the remote sing, so I can confirm that the remote’s probably under the cushion.”
