Industry reports suggest that 10 million units(valued at $3 billion) of wearable technology like my fitbit will be sold in 2014.
I’ve had my fitbit for about six or seven weeks, and I can understand the appeal of these devices. I really like how it helps me track how active (or inactive) I’ve been during the day. I’m not certain how accurately it predicts my steps, but I use it as a baseline nonetheless and like how it tracks my runs along the Charles River. I don’t know that I’m fully realizing the potential of the device and would love to talk to someone who has a fitbit.
Do you have a wearable device like a fitbit or Jawbone? Do you like it? I wonder if I’ll still like the device as much when winter returns and getting outside is neither pleasant nor practical, but I’m hooked for now. Below is a screen shot from my iPhone. 

I’ll send you a FitBit friend request if you promise not to judge me.

I’ve had mine since March and love it, as well. My average is usually between 7 and 8 miles a day. Did you read David Sedaris’s piece in the New Yorker on his Fitbit a few weeks ago? Hilarious!

LOVE my fitbit! I’ve had mine since November and I purchased the Fitbit Aria (scale) in January and love that too! Happy to chat fitbits any day! 🙂
