Area of Expertise: Advocate/Voice of the People

Headline: Long-distance relationships a problem no more
Nutshell: Relationships will no longer be constrained to distance; with networking technology, partners will even touch each other from thousands of miles away.
Vision:I’m already doing webcam stuff with my man. I thought this was very "Back to the Future"-esque, but it’s here! At some point, couples will be able to happily coexist miles away from each other.
