Smartwatches are the new thing. You can't stop it now.

We've all had those "who made this happen?" moments in the world. Fashion? Who understands where these outfits come from each year! Fiction? Why are they pushing a certain style? Movies? Hey, who decided that we needed ten different variations on the same theme all coming out side by side! Design, music, furniture, all these things are controlled by some invisible governing body that we'll never see, and we'll never be a part of. And, for some reason, they've all decided that smartwatches are the way to go. The future is on the wrist. Why? NO ONE CAN EXPLAIN IT.

So what can you do? Join in! And before you dump a ton of money on some fancy iWrist that you might not even want, get your feet wet with a Pebble. It doesn't have a billion-dollar marketing campaign behind it, but it does have all the features you'd expect from a smartwatch in this day and age. It'll do what it needs to do.

And, best of all, when the secret powers-that-be decide that 2018 is the year of the belt, you won't have spent your life savings on some golden smart watch that everybody points and laughs at. Yeah, remember the Newton? How long was THAT a punch line for the technolati?
