Why not let the narcissist in you get informed?

Mirror, Mirror is the perfect screen for those narcissists who want to check the weather and the latest factoids on Reddit while trimming their beard, posing in their own reflection or doing whatever they do in front of the mirror.

The new reflecting screen is basically a household mirror that provides relevant information and data from the Internet at the user's discretion only. It's basically a screen with a reflecting material strapped on it, encased in whatever encasing you want to put it in, which acts both as a mirror and a data displaying machine.

The Mirror features a webcam, leap motion gestures, facial recognition and even support, purdue bus support, text to speech recognition, and obviously constant weather and news update.

From what it looks, this may be a Linux- or Android-based OS that promises to allow users to tweak their own information, data display, and even grid layout at will. There’s no info on what sort of hardware this reflective screen works on, but I'd guess it's a mini PC with Linux strapped on it.

The effectiveness of this digital mirror is underlined by its developers as being a simple and non-obtrusive way of delivering essential data to you, in your house. Adding a screen with random info to your mirror doubles the effectiveness of staring at something in your house, and while you're combing your hair, why not find out that a few people died horribly in an accident somewhere in the world?

Weather info is useful though.
