At Home with Facebook. Leshu Torchin, on the new HTC First advert. Wednesday, in Souciant.

God, that's horrifying. Along the same vein, I've been seeing a lot of this ad around these parts. Pretty sure that it's supposed to be inspiring, or elicit some immediate sense of nostalgia or something, but what it actually does is perfectly summarize my thoughts and feelings on a world that increasingly experiences itself, and bestows value upon those experiences, through pointless gadgetry. Far from making me want to go out and have a date with my iPhone, it makes me want to leave all of my possessions behind and just experience something through my body.

Which, coincidentally, is exactly what I'm doing for the rest of this week and into the next. See you later, Internet.
