A new kind of technology called Body Area Network has been unveiled at a futuristic event (Next Generation Computing Show 2006) on Korea.

Here is how the whole new system works: you have a wearable gadget that is suppose to be placed on your hand, this device contains content that you want to print; in order to get the content printed, you just need to touch the printer and voilá – your documents are now on paper.

When comparing the traditional way of printing with this new one, I think that it can probably save time and be more easy to use instead of a computer. Also, the directional keys on the wrist gadget to select a document and the little screen to display information looks kind of cool.

On a more serious note, what would your co-workers and bosses think if… tomorrow at the office you started printing docs just by touching the printer? They would probably give you a raise.
