One2One Floral Display creates closeness, sorta

Want to feel closer to your online friends in a world that is increasingly isolating, cold, and unloving?  Wipe those tears, friends, for here comes One2One's Floral Display.  You see, One2One developed "technological infrastructure for creating personalized ambient communication links to enhance a sense of presence and togetherness between two distant individuals."  Okay, it's a freaking plastic flower that blooms when someone you love logs on.  It dies when he/she goes offline. It's wireless. Scared, yet?
