Digital Chocolate (yes, that's right, Digital Chocolate) asks potential users to "Seize the minute. Make each minute count with great games and more from Digital Chocolate." It's carpe diem, except for the digital urchins out there who'd probably prefer to virtually climb Mount Everest than do it for real. Digital Chocolate specializes in the creation of games and applications for mobile phones. For company founder and chief executive Trip Hawkins (as quoted in a recent NYT article), "Content is just a means to an end, so there's something to talk about." Making that social connection, through such offerings as The Hook-Up: Ava Flirting (which allows your avatar to meet others' avatars and socialize in various settings), is, according to Mr. Hawkins, what's most important, "Because when you're mobile, you're the most socially needy and vulnerable and insecure, and that's when the one platform you have is the mobile, wireless platform." Sam & Matt, my avatar will be getting in touch with your avatars for some quality social interaction. Check your phones.
