iPhone App.

Plants vs. Zombies has been bought over 300 thousand times which has made Apple over 1 million dollars. The game hit number one in "units sold" and "top grossing" categories on Apple's App Store charts inside 24 hours of launching on February 15. It's crazy how such a pointless game can be so popular...

Chatroulette

On Chatroulette, a new and controversial Web site, every click lands you in a face-to-face video conversation with a random stranger. About 35,000 people are on Chatroulette at any time, according to a traffic count published on the Web site's homepage. I think Chatroulette is a fun thing, you just shouldn't give your information out to people on it.

KINDLE VS. iPAD

Meanwhile Amazon is not lying idle with its technology. The company is in the process of buying touch-screen technology startup. I'm guessing that the iPad will win this "war"

TEXTING

In the first quarter of 2009, the average U.S. teen made and received an average of 191 phone calls and sent and received 2,899 text messages per month. By the third quarter, the number of texts had jumped to 3,146 messages per month, which equals more than 10 texts per every waking non-school hour. It is crazy how much teens rely on texting and not phone calls. My parents have even started texting a lot!

SAVE THE TIGERS

Tigers could become extinct in the wild in less than a generation, the World Wildlife Fund warned today, Wednesday February 10th, as it launched a campaign to save them.
