E.g.: &#8220;How is stufff made&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Blogjects have agency, they can trigger actions and shape social practice. E.g.: TripSense. Tracking driving habits. Provides access to how he moved about SF. Impact he had on environment. How many trips he made. Insight on how he could be more eco-friendly.<\/p>\n<p>Blogjects provide for new logistics.<\/p>\n<p>So what?<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not just about technical communication and interfacing of objects.

GSM backpack. Nice because it elevates the pigeon and is very low-tech.<\/p>\n<p>Sending purchased objects to MySpace. <\/p>\n<p>Establishing relationships between physical and virtual worlds.
