In an attempt to perform some investigative journalism and, you know, maybe provide something like "content" on here, I went out and asked a bunch of people what they think about a very important burgeoning area of technology: robot vacuum cleaners. Okay, so I didn't go out at all. I just asked some people on my messanger list. Also, they didn't say anything particularly interesting, either. Bummer.
