The US Dept of Transportation started a webiste about Distracted Driving.

Unfortunatly, iPhone users are checking out the site while stuck in traffic.

PlayStation 3 has been hacked. George Hotz, who gained notoriety by unlocking the iPhone two years ago, hacked into the “unhackable” game console in just three weeks. Upon hearing this, the Chinese government had two words for him: “You’re hired.”

A filmmaker documenting the tragic earthquake in Haiti was buried in rubble, but he used his iPhone to survive.  And right after he was pulled out of the rubble, he walked around to look for a location in Haiti that actually has cell phone service.

 AT&T has stopped selling iPhones to New Yorkers from its Web site, for unclear reasons. Those who want iPhones can still get them the second most popular way in New York City---by mugging hipsters.

What's your favorite iPhone App? This one is very cool. A California company announced this week an iPhone application and car receiver that will enable users to lock, unlock and remotely start their car with the phone rather than the car's key.  **MARLAR: This is exactly what we need – yet another excuse to use your cell phone when it comes to the car. 

A word of advice: stay away from the Steve Jobs Liver Frappuccino.

President Obama " stupidly " met with his panel of celebrity experts on ways to bring the price of unlicensed medicines down .  The group included Whitney Houston, Bobby Brown, Lindsay Lohan, Mike Tyson, Naomi Campbell, Gary Busey, Kate Moss, and former D.C. Mayor Marion Barry . The meeting ended abruptly after a wild-eyed, lust-filled Tyson tore off terrified Kate Moss's blouse and bra , and frustrated, manic-depressed Naomi bounced her iPhone off the head of Gary Busey .  Bobby Brown found it necessay to give wife Whitney a few much needed bitch-slaps .  During all the chaos and mayhem, Lindsay Lohan did get the chance to sample some of Crackhead Barry's latest stash !

Now I don't want to pontificate but why in a modern age are we bound by the shackles of  irrelevant guidelines so out dated they make Alexander Graham Bell's first prototypes look like an updated iPhone from the year 2025?

I mean seriously between the rules of religious documents from other millenniums to the regulations of legal documents from other centuries the newest code we follow is 6 months older than McCain's great-great grandfather's baby journal photos on papyrus.

Gandhi said, before you break the rules, you must know them. Well hey study time is over, final exams are graded and it's time to cut loose over Spring Break in Cancun, alright?

Hey, stop waiting for Godot, pick up the pen, and let's make these arbitrary absurdities less strict than Fellini as Drill Master Sergeant at Fascism boot camp.

Seriously folks, I mean, let's not cite from the Sex Pistol's lyrics or the pages of the Anarchist's Cookbook.

But let's face it people, wind your sundial from BC to digital with a little Abby Hoffman revolution or James Dean rebellion by declaring a new independence from the old Declaration of Independence.

Alright, hell the Old Testament was old since the birth of Christ. It's so old that we consider it's 2000 yr young sequel the NEW one, okay!

What I'm saying is, if we don't upgrade from all these ridiculous relic restrictions then we're a twelve sided dice piece and nerdy-anal-retentive-level 6-wizard of middle earth away from following more stupid instructions than a level-1-newbie-dwarf in a dictatorship of Dungeons and Dragons.

Bottom line and truth be told, times change, people change, and so should our hand books of social norms.

On the other hand I said I don't want to pontificate, so whatever, y'know?

A 13-year-old boy, who co-edits his own tech website, compared and contrasted the 30-year-old Walkman to his ipod -- teasing the Walkman for being a primitive, odd, bulky version of the iphone.

The feature he thought particularly odd, was just being able to text his friends the letters "F.F.," "REC.," and "STOP/EJ."

Apple has issued an alert to iPhone users that the phones may overheat if exposed to high tempertaures,  if worn in pockets of tight clothes, or if users download pics of Megan Fox.
