The TechList: 07.November.2009
This week in tech: T-Mobile’s porn, Intel scorned, Google gripes and Droid hype
1. ChristianChirp. Jesus friendly Twitter rival launches. If Twitter has a liberal bias, why do so many right-wing assholes follow me?
2. T-Mobile. Shares the gift of porn. Because if tits weren’t meant to be shared, God wouldn’t have made them in pairs.
3. Google. Big brother gives us a privacy dashboard. So now we can play with the rats before they strap the cage to our faces.
4. No Doubt. Band sues over Guitar Hero, claiming avatar abuse. Turns out making Gwen Stefani sing like Mick Jagger is a federal crime.
5. Carrie Prejean. Gay-marriage-bashing beauty queen has book coming out. We understand it was ghost-written by her new breasts.
6. Pew Research. Good news: Study shows tech isn’t turning us into hermit-like pervs. Bad news: It’s already too late for most of us.
7. iPhone Store. Hits 100K apps. Subtract the ones for picking up chix, plastic surgery, & farting, and you’re down to about 37.
8. Bluebeat. Judge denies copyright claims to Beatles songs via “psycho acoustic simulation.” Yet another reason not to buy street acid.
9. Intel. New York AG Cuomo accuses chipmaker of bribery & coercion. If he’s not careful, he could end up sleepin’ wid da fishes.
10. Droid. Near-mythic handset debuts. Thousands hundreds three people line up outside Verizon stores to purchase it. Two are winos.
