An application that enables you to send smells through iPhones could be a way to strengthen the bonds of communication. http://en.rocketnews24.com/2012/10/13/japan-develops-smartphone-application-that-sends-smells/ (http://en.rocketnews24.com/2012/10/13/japan-develops-smartphone-application-that-sends-smells/)

Why do I imagine people going around with acetone stench and being funny from it?

This is for real? o.O

That's crazy... I imagined being able to send "sense" like that... smells and feelings and all. Rocket News likes to talk about "smells" and stuff, huh? Not the first smell related product (if you can call it that) to come out of Japan recently.

Mother: *Rings the house* Can you smell the bread see if it's gone off? I'm at Asda.
Kid: Hold on mum I'll just send you the smell via my phone.

Revolutionary.... though my mother wouldn't be able to understand the technology whatsoever. >.<
