As touch screens are becoming more popular, so are the companion accessories like gloves.

Touch screens are not affected by the heat in your fingers; rather they react to the natural bioelectricity in your skin. Tiny amounts of moisture, salts, and oils on your skin create conductivity allowing electrons to flow between you and your device. Regular gloves will prevent this current from flowing.

Not to worry, a new company, Agloves, have created an innovative solution with silver, the most electrically conductive element. Their gloves are made with silver-coated nylon fibers knitted into the fabric so the conductivity stays with your touch.

That's the kind of outside-the-box thinking we enjoy.
