SPOT stories

Despite my earlier lukewarm reception of my SPOT-enabled watch, I've been wearing it pretty consistently for the past couple of months, so go figure. Anyway I noticed an interesting thing today -- the news alert function creates dramatic little microstories that interpose strangely on the day.

10:42a Israel declares emergency landing for plane with 294 passengers.

10:59a Jet's emergency landing ends safely in Israel.

Phew! Back to work.
