One: Welcome to the Manuscript Writing Cafe in Tokyo, Japan—perfectly tailored for procrastinating writers, artists and editors. You get an unlimited supply of tea and coffee—and someone who will hover over you to make sure you’re working. Oh, and you can’t check out until you’re done.

Snap recently unveiled Pixy: a $230 device that comes with a camera for photos and video—and can hover in place or automatically follow you around.
