18．For those who are tired doing the laundry，Samsung has found an answer：a washing machine that can tell you when your laundry is done via a smartphone app．
Strange though it may seem-"my wife already does that"was a common response among attendees viewing the device when it was introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show （CES） this week-Samsung is just one of many appliance makers racing to install （安装） a large number of internet-connected features in machines in an effort to make them"smart"．
Last year，it was a refrigerator that tweeted．This year，it's Wi-Fi-enabled laundry machines and fridges that can tell you when your groceries are going bad．
The washers and dryers，available starting in the spring，connect to any smartphone through a downloadable application．The phone can then be used as a remote control，so the machines can be turned on and off while their owner is at work or on the bus．
Samsung says it's not just something new-the app connection actually has some practical uses．
"If you started to dry clothes in the morning and forgot to take them out，you can go to your phone and restart your dryer for the time when come home，so your clothes are refreshed and ready to go，"said spokesperson Amy Schmidt．
The company also says that with electricity price varying depending on the time of day，more control over when the machines are used can help save money．
Perhaps，but what they will probably really accomplish is what all good technologies do-enable laziness．Rather than getting up to check on whether the laundry is done，users will instead monitor it on their phones while watching TV．

17．Your glasses may someday replace your smartphone，and some New Yorkers are ready for the switch．Some in the city can't wait to try them on and use the maps and GPS that the futuristic eyewear is likely to include．
"I'd use it if I were hanging out with friends at 3a．m．and going to the bar and wanted to see what was open，"said Walter Choo，40，of Fort Greene．
The smartphone-like glasses will likely come out this year and cost between﹩250and﹩600，the Times said，possibly including a variation of augmented（增强的） reality，a technology already available on smartphones and tablets （平板电脑） that overlays information onto the screen about one's surroundings．So，for example，if you were walking down a street，indicators would pop up showing you the nearest coffee shop or directions could be plotted out and come into view right on the sidewalk in front of you．
"As far as a mainstream consumer product，this just isn't something anybody needs，"said Sam Biddle，who writes for Gizmodo．com．"We're accustomed to having one thing in our pocket to do all these things，"he added，"and the average consumer isn't gonna be able to afford another device （装置） that's hundreds and hundreds of dollars．"
Google publisher Seth Weintraub，who has been reporting on the smartphone-like glasses since late last year，said he is confident that this type of wearable device will eventually be as common as smartphones．
"It's just like smartphones 10years ago，"Weintraub said．"A few people started getting emails on their phones，and people thought that was crazy．Same kind of thing．We see people bending their heads to look at their smartphones，and it's unnatural，"he said．"There's gonna be improvements to that，and this a step there．"
