Sony delays ‘Life with PlayStation’ debut - Joystiq I am very excited for this product to be released.  The concept of tying news events to points on a globe is awesome.  <oldpersonrant> If there is one thing that drives me nuts its the complete lack of geographical awareness in our society.  In the Information Age you would think that we would all be more globally aware, but to my experience that is not the case.  Think of all the people you know, probably the vast majority of them would say the genocide in Darfur is terrible thing “Yea, I totally added that to my Facebook Causes”.  How many of them do you think could actually point to Darfur on a map?  Probably not many.  </oldpersonrant>I am happy my company is releasing this, which is not something I say all the time.
