Can You Pick Up Guys at the Apple Store? You Betcha!
Cosmo sure wasn't lying when they said that Apple stores are a great place to meet men. Last night PartySugar and I ventured out to San Francisco's main Apple store to test their theory. And let me tell you ladies, the place was swarming with men!
What Does a Guy's Gaming Console Say About Him?
Even if I spot an old Playstation hooked up to a guy's TV, I'm not going to pass judgment—ok, so maybe I'm secretly wishing he had a Wii hiding somewhere. In a recent article by Kotaku, a panel of gamers were asked the tough questions about what a console says about a guy—Now I've got your attention don't I?!
The experts include NY-based psychologist Carl Arinoldo, DeVry University's Ed Magnin, online gaming network CEO Ted Owen and GameTrailers.com's Shane Satterfield.
Ladies Beware: Men Choose Gadgets Over Us
According to a survey conducted by GfK NOP, 1 in every 8 men would swap their partner for the latest "must-have" gadget.
Of the 1000 UK adults surveyed, twice as many men as women (13% v 6%) said they would swap their relationship for sought-after electrical goods such as the latest iPod, wide screen TV, home cinema system or fridge freezer.
Before you go and burn all your home electronics, be rest assured that the survey's findings showed a generational gap, with 17% of 16-24-year-olds prepared to swap their partners, compared to only 2% of 55-64-year-olds and 3% of the over 65's.

Retro Goes iPhone: Mad Men Gets an iPhone App
Set to return for its third season this month, excitement for Mad Men is heating up.
Luckily, there's lots of geekiness involved — I told you how I'd wire Don Draper, and AMC first made a Mad Men avatar generator perfect for your Twitter and Facebook profile photos, and now they've added a free iPhone app so you can keep up on the latest news from the set of the 1960s drama.
There's behind the scenes video, blog updates, and sneak peeks from Mad Men and a few other AMC shows too, should you tire of the fabulously retro program (not that that's likely to happen).

How I'd Wire Don Draper

The Screen Stache Saver Is Cracking Me Up
Just in time for Movember, a friend just sent me the link to one of the funniest screen savers I've seen, the Screen Stache Saver.
Created by branding firm 160over90, the concept is simple: affix a fake mustache of your choice to the bottom of your computer monitor, download a folder of the eight screen saver images, and set the preferences on your computer to run a screen saver using the folder of images.
The result is a hilarious screen saver that features changing old-school-style photographs of men perfectly positioned to rock your monitor's mustache.
