How To: Video Chat With Up to 10 of Your Friends at Once
Although iChat allows me to video conference with up to three people at the same time, sometimes I just want to have an iChat party with more of my friends or family. Same goes for those who work from home and need to video with other co-workers in a conference. And with SuperIM, you can now video chat with up to 10 people.
Driving While Texting Is a Killer Combo
We all know the dangers with using wireless communication devices like your cell phone or iPod while driving, yet most of us continue to do so. With car crashes being the number one killer of teens in the U.S, the Today Show decided to see just how distracted teens can get while using their phone while driving. Using a special simulator and wearing high-tech glasses, two teens were put to the test to see how much they looked away and for how long while taking calls, changing songs on their iPod, or sending a text message.

Brody Jenner Talks About the Importance of BBM in Dating
For all of you BlackBerry owners, I'm sure you're well aware of BlackBerry Messenger (BBM). Basically what it is, is IM right on your phone in real time. Unlike SMS, messages are free since they are sent through RIM servers, just like email.
Have You Ever Snuck a Peek Into Your Boyfriend's Messages?
From the way this clip is titled and conducted, it sounds like they're pushing this SIM Card Spy device as a good thing, but I can't help but be anything but horrified. You insert anyone's SIM card from their cell phone into the SIM Spy, and every single text message — including deleted ones — shows up when you plug the SIM Spy's USB into your computer.
Even if you have nothing to hide, this product seems completely violating.
IDK, My BFF Rose
You know, I think the only drawback to having TiVo is that you miss these hilarious commercials that are actually worth watching (although I rewind when I see Apple commercials, just to see what new song I'm about to become obsessed with). So, thank god for YouTube! This awesome clip is hawking AT&T's texting plans, but wait till you hear Grandma getting in on the text-speak chitchat.

Would You Make Phone Calls Via Twitter?
I'm all over Google Voice, the freakishly awesome (and free) Google service that lets me take my own phone number anywhere (plus a ton of other great features). But just cause I use my email carrier to make phone calls, doesn't mean I'd do the same on Twitter. A new third party app from Jajah will allow users to voice chat over Twitter just by first sending a message to @call @"username."
