Looking to more ways to outsource work in an online way I recently thought that it would be cool to not have to take your keys to Ace hardware for copies.
And apparently there is a company that does that.
You take a few photos of your key with their iphone app and voila your key comes in the mail a few days later : dittokey.com
The interesting thing is that this idea will force another type of progress.
It will make clear that keys are plaintext passwords that provide access to your most valuable assets : your home, family, car etc.
Anyone can grab a photo of your keys in your keychain and when that becomes part of the plot of a popular movie... people will start looking for better alternatives than the old world keys.
I also found it interesting that the filament used in RepRap etc is sturdy enough that it can be used for key creation as well . Here is a post about it.
