Smelly Computing Takes On a Whole New Meaning

Olly is a small enough device which is supposed to add smell to the computing experience, for better or worse.

Dubbed a robot, it is more of a small, block-like, white thing that emits smells based on Internet inputs.

It is fully described over here, even though it isn't actually up for order anywhere, though there should soon be instruction as to how one can be made.

Ideally, people should have more than one of these, each linked to different web inputs, like Twitter, Instagram, etc.

A removable section in the back is where oils, a slice of fruit, perfume or anything else with a scent may be placed. When the chosen web input is accessed, the scent will be spread.

All in all, this is partially similar to the Smellit that lets people smell their games and movies (we talked about it here).
