This is priceless:
Tech Replaces Diamonds As Girl’s Best Friend
The Girls Gone Wired survey of 1,400 women and 700 men aged 15 to 49, which was conducted by market researcher TRU [and commissioned by U.S. cable television's Oxygen Network], found that given the choice, women would opt for tech items rather than luxury items like jewelry or vacations.
The study found 77 percent of women surveyed would prefer a new plasma television to a diamond solitaire necklace and 56 percent would opt for a new plasma TV over a weekend vacation in Florida.
Even shoes lost out. The study found 86 percent would prefer a new digital video camera to a pair of designer shoes.
This comes as no surprise … you’ talking to the person who bought a “just becuz” gift for his wife of a domain name for her blog. So nice that the mainstream of society are catching on.
