Man's desire to communicate seems to be endless - since we discovered the phone as a device for social talk, we're spending more & more of our time to all kinds of silly (and only some serious) chatter.
To me it's surprising that there's so little innovation in interfacing between all these devices & applications. Landlines, mobile phones, email, webmail, voicemail, VoIP, messenger, chat - who will enable me to manage them all from one Über-app?!
