Although the title of this episode is "Crazy in Love," I certainly wasn't feelin' the love between many of the characters on last night's episode of The Hills. Spencer and Heidi were at odds with one another the entire show, and Justin stirred up some drama when he showed up at the same bar as Audrina. And how long do you think Stephanie will last at People's Revolution? I give her another episode or two before Kelly says enough is enough. There was a lot of cell phone flashing throughout the show . . . were you paying attention? Because it's now time to take the weekly tech quiz! And don't forget to check out CelebStyle for all of the fashion trends!

The May issue of Esquire offers up a snarky boys club guide on how to "google efficiently." Sure, it made me giggle and was intended to entertain, but I can't say I found any of it particularly helpful or informative. Esquire says:
- Save time by typing in "gogle.com," instead of "google.com." Google automatically directs you to its site. Those milliseconds add up, people. In the time it takes you to type that extra o, you could already be enjoying a reggae version of Christian Bale's rant.
- Go to "Preferences" and change the default display to one hundred results instead of the usual ten. This is a huge time-saver. You don't need to click "Next" — you just scroll down.
- Finally, the book search, which I believe is the most underutilized Google feature. Whatever the topic, search the books and you'll find dozens of relevant passages (highlighted in yellow!). If you're writing an email or making a presentation, it makes you seem educated. And as professor Tara Brabazon says in her book The University of Google, education is...well, why don't you just Google it?

Forget for a moment how completely impractical it is to pay $3,620 for a camera case. Just check out the camera case Givenchy made. Clear crystals, black leather: yes, you'd feel like a fashionista badass pulling your camera out of that.
Back down to earth, though, I just gotta say, wowee. Three grand for something you paid under three hundred for?
I'm not here to judge if you're going to snap this up, but let me just say, if you're going to buy this, please also consider adopting me.
The web moves fast. In fact, they say one day, it might even move
faster than the speed of light. There are millions of articles being published, photos being uploaded, status updates being posted and tweets being tweeted every single day. An RSS reader can help you stay afloat and consume the Internet from one hub — whether you are a casual surfer who uses the web to catch up on email, news and celebrity gossip, or a full fledged Internet junky who spends all day on Flickr, Facebook and reddit.
For those of you who are confused, an
RSS (Really Simple Syndication) Reader is a web feed aggregator, also known as a feed reader that grabs syndicated web content such as news headlines, blogs, podcasts, and vlogs in a single location for easy viewing.
