Ever wish you could talk smack about the people in your immediate proximity without getting caught? Oh my gosh, us too!!! Sonare Technologies and Herman Miller team up to bring us Babble a fresh take on the white noise machine that makes salacious smack talkin’ a consequence free possibility.
Actual Babble user talking smack. Hm, we like big butts.
This portable background noise machine uses the sounds of multiple human voices talking to drown out the sounds of individual conversations. Thus making it impossible for neighboring office mates to overhear your true feelings about your boss as conveyed via phone to your BFF. (For those readers older than Mischa Barton, BFF= Best Friend(s) Forever. Like, duh. See BFF used in a sentence below)
OMG! Paris and Nicole are no longer BFF!
But we digress..
Babble, with its Herman Miller design not only brings psuedo privacy to continents of cubicle commoners, it also makes a handsome desk accessory! When using Babble you can look hip and stylish while you discuss ad naseum the details of last night’s episode of Drawn Together Desperate Housewives all without pesky co-workers becoming annoyed with your lack of “productivity”.
Handsome and stylish distant relative of the Aeron chair.
Sonare’s website suggests turning Babble on when you’re discussing finances, medical test results and homeland security. Hmm there goes our fantasy that the folks at Homeland Security are actually discussing that topic in an office with a 3 ft thick iron door that closes, a couple of fancy pants high back leather chairs and ooooh maybe an actual security system in place. We can see it now, Babble in the Oval Office Cubicle.
All this babble talk of practical uses for Babble got us thinking of some less business like uses for the lil’ guy.
1) Party’s a dud? No worries, just flip the switch on the Babble machine, crank up the volume and suddenly you’ve got a raging party! Babble will fool your guests into thinking they are frolicking at a fabulously festive fete!
2) Can’t decide what to take as your Luxury Item when you’re cast as a player on next season’s Survivor? Bring along the oh so portable Babble and drown out your strategic alliance building conversations. Fear not when deciding whom to vote off the island, with Babble even the shadow of a palm tree offers the ultimate in privacy.
3) Boss thinks you’re at a 3-day conference in Omaha but in reality you’re bronzing and babe watching by the hotel pool and you need to check in during the break? No problem. Erase the anxiety of that check in chat, Babble has it all under control. Just plug Babble in by the pool and dial Mr. Slate your boss directly. As a bonus your boss will want to cut the call short when he hears the bustling voices of the competition plotting in the background. Back to work, Flintstone!!
4) And from the looks of the ads, Babble also has the magical ability to make its users INVISIBLE!!
No, we are not making this up. See for yourself. We didn’t believe it either until we saw the image below. See? Not seeing is believing.
Babble users made invisible by its secret power of erasing heads and limbs.
We’re sure our readers have lots of ideas for ways to incorporate Babble into their lives.
What do you have to hide?
