All this is very interesting but there's a problem. If we virtualize too much we'll lose touch with reality. Yes, I'd love to go to London right now but it won't be the same as actually being there. If the whole family is virtually together it won't be the same as actually being together. Us people need physical presence in our life. And finally, we don't want to make things too convenient because we'll end up sitting on our chair and doing everything from there which is very unhealthy. We need to get out, walk, move etc
