We are a race with possibly no neighbors. And so, in order to mollycoddle our lonely little hearts, we designed sports, arts, cultures and eventually, cool toys that we could play with. And just like a petulant child, when we get bored of our old toys, we invent new ones: newspapers, TV, internet are all becoming those old toys, and iPhones, currently, are our new toy. So why not use this new contraption to its full potential, just like so many companies have already started to.
