5 things missing from your mobile life in 2008: Google Mobile and more
Life's getting mobile, and it seems that's the way it's always going to be. Humans don't come off as the traveling type, yet we do.

Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
