Thinning Cameras

The newest camera coming out is one that will make you look thinner. There are functions built into the camera that will shrink the centre of the image, which means a person will look a few sizes smaller.

There is also a function called "soft focus," which focuses on blurring and smoothing imperfect skin. Hewlett Packard is the genius (do you hear my sarcasm?) behind this one and they're marketing it to consumers as a new devise that will take 10-15 pounds off of you with just the click of a button. It'll only set you back $400.

The sad thing is, these way-too-expensive toys will probably sell like hotcakes. They interviewed people on the street and they were all women who seemed very interested and liked the idea of being able to take off unwanted pounds for the family album. That's warped! So now people have one more mode of our tech-savvy world to make them feel that they are not okay they way they are.
