Tweenbots

Saw the video and the Tweenbot at MOMA in New York City. Who said New Yorkers weren't helpful. Although, if tweenbot had been a slow tourist in sneakers and a fanny pack, I don't think the assistance would have been as great.

Things like this remind me there are still nice people in the world.

:-) random acts of kindness

This just made me smile for many reasons. First because the robot is so cute, and the confused looking pedestrians helping it on it's way were especially adorable. Second, because of the blog and description of one pedestrian telling the tweenbot "You can’t go that way, it’s toward the road." And finally because I would have done the same thing.

Little, human-dependent robots that serve as further proof that the only reason people take care of babies is because they're so adorable.

Watch the video for adorables x 1000.
