Airport luggage lost in the Matrix? Now there's an app for that.

Wirecutter's Brian Lam went to the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) and came back with a list of just eight gadgets that he might someday buy. One of them is particularly cool: a little gizmo called the Trakdot.

Lam explains:

Lam doesn't mention another cool feature. The Trakdot will ping your phone when your bag is 30 feet from you. That means you can do something else (read, watch a video, get a rental car, etc) while waiting for your luggage to arrive, instead of just staring at a conveyor belt for 10 minutes.

It's the little things that make this the future.
