In today's world the term 'global' takes on an entirely new meaning. Initially termed to mean in reference to the world as a whole, as opposed to individual countries, but today, while still holding true, it also means something more.

People separated by thousands of miles have never been closer and it takes nothing more than a touch of a button.
