The 2009 Maybach Landaulet is Awesome (for Rich People)

2009-Maybach-Landaulet-lead

Sporting 20-inch rims, a world-class V12 engine and the uber-pimp landaulet top, the Maybach Landualet is the most badass luxury car we’ve seen in a long time. In fact, this thing is so ridiculously fly, it’s not even called a car anymore; it’s a “luxury chauffeured saloon.” And if there’s one thing that every car should be, it’s a saloon. Oh, and it costs $1.35 million dollars. Not so bad, right? I mean, the ride must be incredible. You could literally plow over a village of poor people with this thing, and not even notice. Eat that, Bentley!

Find out more about this car that you will never, ever own, here! And check out the pics below!


The Twitter Guide Book Will Show You the Way

twitter-guide-book

Twitter. It’s everywhere, from CNN to your cell phone. The service currently receives around 35 million visitors a month. And with it’s role in the uprising in Iran, that number is sure to go up. But despite its exploding popularity, the social networking Site remains somewhat of a mystery to new and not-yet users. Even daily users must studiously learn the protocols and ediquette of the service. And learning about tweets and retweets, @ replies, direct messages and who to follow has been a matter of trial and error. Until now. (more…)

The iTunes App Store Goes Topless (UPDATE: Nevermind…)

hottest-girls-app

UPDATE: Um, nevermind – Apple just removed the app from their US iTunes store. Oh, well, it was good while it lasted! (P.S. Does anyone have more pictures of this girl? Hot damn!)

Despite the fact that you’ve been looking at porn on your iPhone for years, Apple has now approved the first app to be sold in iTunes that contains nudity!

Called Hottest Girls (iTunes download) the $2 app features more than 2,200 pictures of super-smokin’ girls, like Lucy Pinder, Megan Fox and Bree Olson, in everything from skimpy outfits to, well, nothing at all.

The change in Apple’s policy toward adult content – which previously wouldn’t even allow an ebook reader app because it could be used to access the Kama Sutra – comes with the 3.0 software upgrade, which now allows for age verification. (And by “age verification,” I mean that it asks if you’re older than 17 before allowing you to download the app.)

Photos are organized into categories, Popular, Asian, Blonde, Brunette and Swimsuit. And users are given the option to rate the photos either “Bad” or “Good,” which will help determine which pics make the cut on the next round of updates.

Not only does the app give you tons of hot pics in one place, it allows you to download them to your photo to look at whenever you want, and use for backgrounds, caller ID pictures or whatever else you want. (more…)

Is Facebook Helping to Squash the Revolution in Iran?

iran-green-revolution-facebook-lead

With the increasingly bloody battle for Iran’s future raging on in Tehran, social networking Sites, like Facebook and Twitter, remain the primary source of news out of the country, whose government has effectively banned all established press from reporting.

Wisely, Twitter has done whatever it can to help maintain its service for the Iranian people, ensuring Twitter’s relevance in this new era of information sharing, if not in the history books. Facebook, on the other hand, has taken a different approach.

Meet Saeed Valadbaygi, author of the Website, Revolutionary Road and one of the primary ‘citizen journalists’ for the revolution currently going on in Iran. His extensive reports have been referenced and quoted repeatedly in the mainstream media, from Andrew Sullivan’s The Daily Dish to MSNBC.

In addition to posting on his Site, Saeed uses both Twitter and Facebook to report everything from first hand experiences to videos from the frontlines in Iran, online, for the world to see.

But within the last few days, Facebook has twice threatened to cancel Saeed’s account, citing as the reason vague violations of their Terms of Service. After receiving the warnings, Saeed posted them to his Facebook page, without comment. Facebook then deleted the posts from his Site.

In response, a Facebook group, “in defence of Saeed’s activities on Facbook” [sic] is attempting to keep Facebook from canceling Saeed’s account. The group currently has more than 1,350 followers and is growing by the day. (more…)

Google Goes Porn-Free… In China

google-boobsAnytime you need to ask yourself why it’s good to be American, just remember all the freedoms you enjoy, that people elsewhere are less fortunate. Freedoms like being able to look at whatever porn you want (within reasonable boundaries), whenever you want.

See, if you lived in China, that wouldn’t be the case, as Google has agreed to remove all the porn from Google’s searches! All of it.

According to Google’s communications director, John Pinette, Google is “undertaking a thorough review of our service and taking all necessary steps to fix any problems with our results.”

Beanzawave USB Mircrowave Will Give You Gas

If you’re anything like me, by the time 3PM rolls around, you desperately need to either fall asleep or get a good pick-me-up snack. Which is why the insanely-named, Beanzawave USB-powered microwave currently being designed by Heinz is such an awesome idea.

The 7-inch tall contraption, which is made specifically for heating up individual packets of beans (yes, beans) fits easily next to your desk and will run you about $160. Why anyone would need a portable microwave made specifically for bean cooking, I have no clue – though I’m sure the reasons are British. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t awesome. [via: Gizmodo]
