HR Communication Flowers

Communication Flower

I saw this description of the Communication Flower on Engadget:

[T]he Communication Flower pulls double duty by sprucing up your living room and adding a bit of chatter to break up the depressing silence. Although you can’t wirelessly cater to its every need, this device sports a colorful motif and packs an integrated speaker to randomly belt out “200 words and phrases” whenever you speak to or touch the connected bouquet.

Which got me to thinking: I wonder if this the missing link in HR communication. Imagine sending out talking flowers to all employees instead of that boring memo “from the desk of the CEO.”
