Web-enabled. There are refrigerators out there that keep track of things, apparently, and are web-enabled to notify you when you are getting low on items or if the power goes out. Also, a web-enabled microwave oven that emails or sends a text message when your meal is ready, I forget which. Read about them a couple of years ago and just thought that some people had too much of a driving need to spend lots of money on things.

Almost as bad as a gold-plated hammer or monkey-wrench, as far as I am concerned.

“Gold-plated” monkey-wrench, I should clarify.

I know when I am running low on things in the fridge. the empty shelves give that away. and my microwave does not stop reminding me it’s done until I open the door.

web enabled appliances are just a sales gimmick. Until they can fix me a sammich via a txt. I am not interested in them.
