Wow.  Seems like the old saying, “May you live in interesting times” has really taken the world by storm. The roaring twenties have a new meaning for most of us now.  We are only halfway through the year and have been witness to and participated in so much change already. The Last Gameboard was created to help facilitate change.  We are building community and connection between human beings.  When we are in a community, our differences don’t seem so large; we are happier and healthier.  We aren’t just building a consumer appliance or “a better mousetrap”.  We are building an ecosystem to help better the future.
