Apparently, more and more of us are losing the ability to communicate face to face. Choosing instead to fill life's awkward silences and pregnant pauses staring at our lovely new smart phones.
That's right: latest figures have reveal that 40% of us are now the proud owners of phones that are one model away from being able to wipe your ass. For online gaming and online slots, the smart phone revolution is a mighty fine thing. Sod the Arab spring, what we want are mobile casinos on our iPhone and online slots on our Samsung Galaxy.
Unsurprisingly, the bearded wonder that is Richard Branson, and his oh so chaste business, has leaped on the smart phone casino bandwagon. Virgin Games is now available as a pocket sized casino which means you need never miss the chance to play for that big online progressive jackpot.
Online slots like Thunderstruck and Tomb Raider will now be at your fingertips when your mate is getting the drinks in at the bar. Blackjack, roulette, and a wide selection of other online casino games are all perfectly represented in a pint-sized format. Someone important with a nice suit from Virgin Casino said: "

You'll need a better phone than that Dicky boy...
With Smartphone penetration now exceeding 40% in the UK, customers want and expect to be able to do on their phone what they do on their PC. With the launch of Virgin Casino Mobile we're simply responding to this demand."
So the next time you fancy a little online slot machine excitement and casino action, grab your phone and get stuck into a little Virgin.
