Poken are like paperless business cards, for the online set: A round little USB keychain stores your basic contact details, along with “profiles for most social-networking sites,” so you can share this information with up to 50 other “Pokenators.” To transfer the data, touch the “large, fold-out hand” to someone else’s device. Available as kittens, aliens, ninjas, and other characters.
