USB shot glass: from where else but Russia?
Russians love their vodka, but unfortunately there's a big social taboo on drinking alone. Well, I guess it's not that unfortunate, as drinking alone tends to be kind of pathetic. Unless you're in the shower. Drinking beer in the shower is awesome, am I right guys? Guys?
Anyways, in order to allow thirsty and sober Ruskies to enjoy their vodka without shame, designer Sergei Mikheev has created the USB shot glass. It tracks how much liquid is in the glass and then, while online with "drinking buddies," reports the info online. That way your friends can peer pressure you to finish your drink in one go while allowing you to vomit in the comfort of your own home. Ain't technology grand?

Here Here! Drinking a beer in the shower is just about the best way to enjoy one. As you mentioned, the obvious downside is you usually must do it alone. So, when should we expect the shower/keg/fridge/bar, that can't be far off?
As far as the USB shotglass, must be a Russian thing.
