    no design is as sustainable as reuse, so to that end, we prob dont need all these blasted web servers either. go to the extreme, we should all move back to urban centers and ride bikes or at least use mass transit. and in light of that ideal, i dont think publishing an article about mobile games is that big of a deal.
