			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With this installment, I usher in the new Category of &#8220;Web Crap&#8221;.</p>
<p>From the <a href="http://www.groqit.com/" title="Useless!">Groqit website</a>:<br />
<em>Have you ever brought home a movie you already had? Or stood wondering in a bookstore if this was a book you had at home &#8211; whether to risk buying a duplicate or missing out on a good read?</em></p>
<p><img src="http://www.groqit.com/images/groqit_in_hand.jpg" alt="Groqit" height="219" width="304" /></p>
<p>Well here&#8217;s a chance to identify yourself as a <strong>mindless dork</strong> while browsing the <strong>Self Help</strong> section at Borders!   After people ask you &#8220;what is that ugly hi-lighter shaped pen-thing you keep rolling across bar codes?&#8221;  You&#8217;ll answer with great confidence, &#8220;<em>It&#8217;s a 21st century invention that keeps me from buying duplicate possessions!</em>&#8221;</p>
<p dragover="true"> And I really love this quote:</p>
<p><em><span style="font-weight: bold; color: #293a85; font-size: 12px"><strong>The                           perfect gift for the one who has everything:  a way                   to keep track!</strong></span></em></p>
<p>If you have <strong>everything</strong>, why would you need to keep track?</p>
<p dragover="true">Here&#8217;s another fine selling point.   <em>Please Note: To read a Compact Disk (CD) barcode the jacket must be removed from the jewel case.</em></p>
<p>No problem!  I&#8217;ll just remove the shrink wrap, pop open the case and scan away!  WOW!  Lookee here, I already own that CD.  I&#8217;ll just put that opened package back on the shelf.  I love automation!</p>
<p>I bet by now you&#8217;re wondering how much this pocket wonder costs?   Hold on to your task chair.  Only <strong>$95.00</strong>!!</p>
<p>C&#8217;mon, who can&#8217;t remember if they own a particular CD or book?  If you can&#8217;t, <strong>you own too much</strong> and you definitely don&#8217;t need this gizmo.</p>
