AppleWatch Reactions From The Net
Apple announced the AppleWatch. Twitter responded with the right level of snark.
At their annual conference, Apple talked up their new iPhone 6 and revealed new wearable tech: the AppleWatch. One has to assume they avoided calling it the “iWatch” to avoid conversations mimicking Abbot & Costello’s “Who’s On First” routine. Regardless of why they named it the AppleWatch, it stole the spotlight from the iPhone 6. I’m not big on Apple products as the last product I bought was abandoned about a year after owning it. It wouldn’t be fair for me to talk about the AppleWatch, so I went to Twitter and it didn’t disappoint. Here are some of the reactions to the AppleWatch from around the country.

So excited for the Apple Watch. For centuries, we’ve checked the time by looking at our phones. Having it on your wrist? Genius. #AppleLive

@joshmccormack The new iPhone detects nude selfies and if you have a high klout score automatically shares them with reddit #AppleLive
