Yes, this is a really interesting piece. It's not really a software
"review" in the typical sense, in that it doesn't really comment on how
well the tools live up to what they promise. It's more a commentary on how
we humans are always looking for new and better ways to communicate and/or
collaborate. I do want to try all of the tools, though.

BTW, you might see a familiar name in the Comments section. ;-)
