When I first came across Glowdeck it looked to me like a sophisticated wireless speaker system. But after looking into it a bit further I found that it just might change the way our homes are connected to the information grid.

Sound ominous? Maybe it is. Glowdeck is in fact a wireless speaker system. It’s also a wireless charging station. Plus it runs on a brand new operating system who’s goal is to simplify our daily stream of data that is sent to our phones.

This device is not for every home, but I could see it being a perfect companion for those with a home office. It’s a bridge between business and pleasure that may just simplify the notifications, tasks and alerts that seem to clutter our phones on a daily basis.

I could try and explain everything that Glowdeck does, but the video below does a much better job of it. Check out the video below or donate to Glowdeck on Kickstarter if you want to be one of the early recipients of what might be the future of the connected home.
