The Ghost Reminder

By Simon Oqvist

The Ghost Reminder is a wonderful little gadget that features a motion sensor, a microphone and a speaker. What it does is it records a message and when someone comes within three feet of it, the message automatically plays.

Although the purpose of the Ghost Reminder is to remind you, or others, about important things, it can also be used in pretty much any situation where you’ve got a need to leave a message to someone that you know will pass by. In other words, this little thing just might be the most useful gadget we’ve seen in a long time.

Although it fills my heart with a sense of national pride it does have one major downside: because it’s so new, and so Swedish, you can only purchase it at Swedish websites, like this one, for about $25.
