Pillow App Hits Android Market

As I sat in a chair in the office at work today, waiting to be released by higher-ups, boredom threatened to strike. My coworkers and I whipped out our smartphones and started surfing the WWW via GGG, sending txts via MMS and SMS, and downloading and trying new apps in an attempt to retain good attitudes and morale—not to mention consciousness. The work day had been long and grueling, and everyone's heads were drooping low. In a moment of enlightenment, I rested my face lazily against the screen of my Motorola Droid and announced, "Someone should make a pillow app."

Someone did.

That someone is me. I couldn't get it off my mind; how simple, how silly! A pillow displayed comfortingly on the screen of your cellphone, ready to lull your mind into a warm, hazy place of rest.

Currently only a picture, future plans involve ambient sounds and white noise options to soothe you to sleep. These will come with timers and alarms for automatic shutoff. The pillow will also be customizable with different pillowcases, and a foofing ability will allow you to give your pillow that extra fluff when it starts to feel (ahem—look) a trifle flat.

Stay tuned!
