That Tap on the Wrist

Michael Rockwell:

After two weeks, I’ve learned that Notifications are by far the most compelling feature. They might not have the pizzazz of third-party apps or digital touch, but they are the primary reason I continue to wear my Apple Watch everyday. Especially considering that most notifications are actionable — being able to like, retweet, or reply to mentions on Twitter right from my Watch is absolutely incredible.

This is the feeing that I feel is hard to explain to non smart watch people. No, my Apple Watch doesn't do everything quite as well as I hope it does one day, but the core tasks, such as receiving and acting on notifications is incredibly well done. This alone makes the Apple Watch a worthy purchase for me. Everything else is just a bonus.

Keep an eye on Michael's site, Initial Charge as he surely will have much more to say about his new Watch.
