Poken is a social networking USB device that allows users to connect to the social networking profiles of real-world friends and acquaintances by doing a "high four" with pokens. Once you've high-four'ed another poken with yours, the poken functions much like an online business card by giving you access to your friends' online profiles.Inventor Spot: Poken Networking USB Key...

How It Works
Once you've exchanged information with your friends by high-four'ing your poken devices, simply plug your poken into your computer's USB port. Your friends' information will have been uploaded to the poken web database to provide you with easy access to their profiles. From the poken web database you will be able to configure your poken to share only the profiles you want to share.Inventor Spot: Poken Networking USB Key... (April 16, 2009)
