World of Websites

I often dream about having a small(ish) house with a white picket fence, on a quiet street, lined with cherry trees.
There would be some small shops within walking distance, where I could get all my essentials, and my neighbours would be my friends and colleagues.
The pub at the end of the road would be a meeting point and the hub of the community. There would be a school, a clinic, a gallery, a music venue and a sports field. My favourite gadget store would have an outlet on the corner (they asked me if they could open there!)
My office would be in the business district of the nearby metropolis, right next to the offices of all our suppliers and partners.
The thing is, when I walk into one of our suppliers offices and see the world through his eyes, it's different. His neighbours are his suppliers and partners, his house is near mine, but his neighbours are different, and the road is narrower!
But it's ok, if I tire of him, I can move him further away, perhaps round the corner. He'll never know.
I probably shouldn't tell you this, but I have a door in my house, that when I go through it, I end up in an area of town where all the shops sell alcohol! Hundreds of wines, beers, whiskies, any drink I can possibly think of! It's delivery only, so you don't see a lot of drunks there, but it's good to get recommendations from other customers as you're browsing.
I'm really thinking that one of these days I should build my own mall, I heard shops sometimes pay for a place in them, if you get enough visitors...
