Linked. is a device for long distance communication for teenage boys. Its form of pillow is situated in each boy's room, especially on the bed. When one hugs or punches the device, the other pillow immediately represents the movement and power of the action. This creates a physical communication when the other one feels his friend's intention of "squabble" and puch back with his device.
