Here’s a not-stupid idea: Drive, a companion app for drivers, cuts out all the extraneous stuff that you’re not gonna need on the road and limits you to four basic things: calls, texts, music and maps. Easy on those texts though, buddy.
One step closer to a more perfect union with our technology.

Nissan’s teamed up with the versatile and endlessly-surprising Kinect to enable people to check out its 2013 Pathfinder, inside and outside, from all angles, with a natural series of gestures. And it’s pretty specific, lending you a sense of proportion for the trunk space and even indicating where your head falls in the driver’s seat.
The idea is to give you enough sensory information via augmented reality (AR) to make an informed decision about whether the Pathfinder is right for you. (It was certainly right for my parents at least three times in their car-buying history.)
Question is, how many cars have been sold by new car smell alone? Somebody better be pumping that in from someplace.
