What about V.R.? Well..

On: Lightsaber: Input Device Of The (Near) Future

I always thought the cool thing about virtual reality was the fact that you could be anything you wanted, and not just a humanoid. (connections directly into your brain were the coolest ideas (movies such as The Matrix-- although that just allowed you to be humanoid, and RPGs such as Shadowrun))

This reality-to-V.R., however, allows you to use some sort of an object as a tool to interact with the virtual reality. It seems rather limiting (in the sense that you have to be humaniod, using a tool with your limb(s)), and eventually exhausting through overuse (oh no, im giving porn companies ideas)...

I guess more importantly... the fact that it is a technological advancement in gaming, pushing us further from the old atari ping-pong games, and hopefully inspiring people to use their creativity with what they have :)

Knowledge is power. The Internet is knowledge...

Given the chance to learn, and love learning, people in '2nd world' countries will embrace knowledge, and strive to advance their society (or at least their families..).

Give people access to the internet (and in turn, the world around them), and they shall learn. Education is the key.
