I was watching a documentary the other day on the soldiers in Iraq keeping in contact with family members. Email, Instant Messaging even Video Conferencing. Not too long ago, if your loved one went to war, you were lucky to get a letter or two a month, now, you can talk in "real time" and if you are lucky enough you can sit back and talk to your soldier face to face (via computer monitor) while they are half a world away in a war zone. I just think that's really cool!!
