For example, the user could provide a name when first connecting the mirrors, e.g. "Bob," "uncle Tony," or "Sam, son of James, a blacksmith in the Western Isles." Later, you just say "call Bob." Alternatively, the mirror could work like a smart phone and fill itself with icons of what's on the other side of each mirror and the user swipes and taps just like we do. | |

| Jan 7, 2016 at 23:34 | comment | added | Josh | @Theraot, only if that's how you want it to work. I imagined the connection being permanent unless the mirror owner wished to disconnect at some point. Think of how your phone remembers wifi networks. | |
