W-41.com combines clothing and technology into a wearable, on-the-go link for any website. Each product has a unique logo printed on it that is linked specifically to your favorite website (your profile, blog or MySpace). Once you have downloaded the program on your phone, you can take a picture of the logo and your phone pulls up that website. People can also leave you private messages if they are interested in getting more information, or getting to know you better.
