Abstract
Broadcast Transcript: Loves me... Loves me not... Loves me... Loves me not... While the rest of us technoclods are still using daisies as a means of ascertaining our sweethearts' feelings, here in South Korea, hi-tech capital of the world, they have switched from flowers to phones. Specifically, the passion phone, available from mobile service KTF. Using patented Love Detector technology, the passion phone secretly analyzes your honey's voice patterns for true love. After a phone call, a subscriber to the service will receive a text message that breaks down the amount of honesty, affection, surprise and concentration in their lover's voice. Is this more accurate than the petal method? Maybe... Maybe not... Maybe... Maybe not... #ceas #hacker #SouthKorea #tsutsui
