It's our mission at Wareable to be the authority on wearable technology on the web. Either that or our Twitter bio is telling porkies. But the thing about the internet that makes it so unfuckwithable is that we don't just want to keep you on the site 24/7. There are plenty of other good places for you to get your wearable tech fix on top of your daily/hourly/minutely check-ins with us.
So as well as keeping you up to speed in our daily news stories, The week in wearable tech, Field of view and And finally regulars, we thought we'd share some of our in-the-know social feeds. We've skipped the big tech sites because they go without saying. As for this little lot, follow, subscribe and bookmark away.
