Umm, what is carrom?

It occurs to us that a lot of members of the StoreFrontLab community are probably asking, "What is carrom?" According to Arun Paul, founder of Priya Living:
"It's best to understand carroms as 'finger pool' except that, for Indians carroms is much more enjoyable. You don't need a stick or a cue; you just use your fingers. And because you play seated in one spot at a carrom board or table, the game lends itself to uninterrupted, flowing conversation. Lastly, carroms can be played anywhere—on the street, floor, in a cafe. Having the space for a pool table is a real luxury in India."
