Not content with teledildonics, the Russians have come up with a design for telealcoholics. Apparently Russians drink a lot. And they link to drink socially and in business situations.
In this case, this USB shot glass allows two parties to drink together over the internet, notifying the other person just how much booze is left in the glass. This last part is important, since it's apparently rude not to finish the shot in Russia.
Now businessmen can seal deals over the net instead of in person, which frees them to do a lot more drinking and a lot less traveling.

The sensor can measure the liquid level, but I bet it can't tell what kind of liquid is in the glass... some unethical businessman might use Sprite instead of Stoli.
yes, but how are you supposed to get the polonium 210 into someone's glass over a cable connection?
what, why...what??
it will never replace drinking in a company, it's just an apology for drinking alone.
If it's a shot glass, wouldn't you finish it on the first go? Or is there some Russian custom of sticking your tongue in the glass to get the last few precious drops of vodka?
Man... the golden days of capitalism when you could seal a deal over the 2-martini lunch or a booze-soaked party after the contract signing...
Oh well, I guess it's Russia's turn.
Mixed with teledildonics you now have to get the chick drunk...
