Here's another free idea for a useful invention:
A TV remote control that detects when you fall asleep and pauses the video/dvd/tv so that you don't miss anything.
Falling asleep during a narrative can be quite traumatic. You wake up with such a sense of confusion and discontinuity.
It could also be hooked up to the ratings system, to give TV stations a better idea of what is actually getting watched, rather than what is slept through.
P.S. I'm feeling lazy today, so this is actually a repost from the old blog.

Oh damn! I don't have time to watch the things I've recorded as it is!
I'll need an iPod version, Kram! Looks uncomfortable, though!
hahaha...well Erk, maybe eventually we could just implant the electrodes *directly* in your brain...that might be more comfortable in the long run.
Arguably it would make updating iTunes easier, Kram! :P
Hmmm.. If this idea was implemented, the ratings figures would show I did not watch one Australian Idol performance of Marty Simpson or Carl Riseley (as I was asleep, get it?).
