matthew52+FollowWinter storm tech: Would you trust a robot snow blower?While most of us were bundled up and shoveling through this weekend’s winter storm, one New Jersey resident let a $4,999 autonomous snow blower do all the heavy lifting.

It even recharged itself and kept going until the job was done—though it did have some hiccups with setup and icy patches. Would you invest in a robo-snow helper, or do you still trust your own shovel more? Let’s hear your thoughts! #Tech #WinterStorm #SnowBlower10Share

Sandra Escobar+FollowBoston’s snow day: Sleds, shovels & cocoaBoston woke up buried under more than a foot of snow, turning the city into a winter playground and a chore zone all at once.
