The wonders of technology never cease to amaze. First came that charming creation called email; next we had chat rooms and groups, which soon grew up into full fledged social networks which have saved and salvaged many a shipwrecked friendship; then came the visual onslaught with HD videos, full length movies and pristine pictures; and of course, there are the online games and the MMORPG communities and virtual worlds and second lives. And now there's mobile satellite internet, which offers all that at lightning fast speeds anywhere, be it at sea or by land.
