How an iPhone app called the A-Hole Tester helped me finally cut a loser loose.
"Does he call you less than when you first started dating?" "Does he make an effort to get to know you?" "When you think of him, do you smile or want to grab the vodka?" I'm being bombarded with questions about the guy I'm currently seeing — important ones that I should be answering honestly—but they're not coming from my best friend (or my mom, who's always been my own personal relationship guru).
A new iPhone4S app can tell you what your friends, family -- and love interest -- are up to.
Apple is unveiling the new iPhone4S, and the Internet is freaking out.

Apple's iPhone has an updated application answering the age old question, "What do women want?"
"What Women Want" is an application that features "an automatic calucation of a woman's 'average menstrual cycle,'" tarot cards, an obesity checker, reminders for men to give their lovers a gift, "various functions of what women want directly" and more. According to a recent iTunes app store search, this clever application was among the top 50 downloads (it's since been replaced by the likes of DashboardAquarium and TeaTimer... yawn.)
