While it's not likely to convince you to buy a Moto 360 by itself, Pocket's latest prototype hints at the possibilities developers are exploring in the months leading up to Android Wear devices going on sale. Unlike the app that Pocket built for the Samsung Galaxy Gear, the prototype won't let you read Pocket stories from your watch directly. This prototype of Yu Yu Hakusho: Makyou Toitsusen dated June of 1994 was found on a development disc for the Sega Channel.Though the original BIN file was oddly missing, two LZSS compressed copies ('YUYU.GI' and 'YUYU.SA') were still there. When an alert on your smartwatch lets you know a friend has sent you an article to read, swiping will reveal an option to save it to Pocket. Pocket's SDK works by allowing you to turn those notifications into saved articles and videos. "What's been missing is the ability to quickly act on that information by saving or sharing it." "Up until now, smartwatches have focused solely on delivering short notifications," Pocket says. The prototype allows developers to integrate Pocket into their own apps so that users can save items with a couple of taps. Pocket is among the first companies to rise to the challenge, showing off a prototype version of a software development kit for Android Wear today that will let you save links directly from your watch. Googled unveiled Android Wear this week and encouraged developers to build apps purpose-built for the wrist.
