We have an entire generation of people who grew up watching shows such as MTV’s ‘The Real World”, and so to them it probably seems normal to have a camera following them around, catching everything they say or do. If you think you and your friends are interesting enough, you can life-blog while wearing the $100 Polaroid Cube.

The 1.5″, shock-proof, and water-resistant (to 2 meters) Cube captures 1080p HD video, takes 6 megapixel photos, has a 124° wide angle lens, a built-in rechargeable battery that records up to 90 minutes.

Photos are stored on a microSD card, and there are different mounts so that you can capture video or photos while biking, swimming, or you can use the tripod.

There’s no mention of a neck lanyard or a pocket-clip; if you are going to take this life-blogging thing seriously, then it seems like you’ll need one of those, too.

Interested? You can pick your Polaroid Cube up (with or without all of the accessories) on Photojojo.
