I know all the games you're playing, cause I play them too

The connotation of this line would be so different if I were the one to say it.

Ringtones are a new, indirect way to express our feelings. The Rogers commercials have already suggested as much. It seems that every year there is a new way for us to do so, but is expressing indirectly healthy for us? Why do we seem to need an increasing number of ways to express ourselves?

Cell phones also bring up the issue of conformity for me. You can tell conformity is a huge issue with cell phones by the desperate race for customization amoung all the phones. Realtrax, assigning different tunes/pictures to different callers, wallpapers, etc. It's all subtle and indicative solely through the need for individualization. It's like dancing in your own crazy way. Are there any left brave enough to conform to something fully and not have it threaten their identity?
