So we’ve covered the Playboy app and the Fap App, and now you’re thinking, well that’s great, all that stimulation from my phone, where do I find some real action? Well, obviously your answer is at your fingertips (OBC, silly!), but if you’re out shopping and are in need of a hookup, the PinpointsX app is what you’ll need. Membership to the program will sign up your phone to the GPS system, helping you locate other singles, couples, or escort services in your area on your “Passion Map”…

We’re not so sure about this little program… maybe if the device could direct you to the nearest STD clinic, we’d be set!

Colorado filmmaker Dan Woolley was in Haiti filming a documentary when the country was rocked by a 7.0 earthquake last Tuesday. When the building he was in collapsed on top of him, he feared he would die. That is, until he remembered he had his iPhone with him.

He first used the flashlight feature to find his way into an elevator shaft. Then he used a medical app to diagnose his broken foot, learn how to fold a makeshift bandage and tourniquet, and how to stop the bleeding from his head. Here’s where it gets crazy: because Wooley read that falling asleep while being in shock can be fatal, he set his iPhone alarm to go off every 20 minutes. Each of these different iPhone apps were essential to helping this man survive the 65 hours until help came. I would have just played “Words With Friends” until somebody came looking for me.

Apple for the win!

Wired Magazine just posted a pretty funny list of things we’ll most likely be saying to our grand children in the far flung future. It wasn’t so long ago that we had no idea what a “tweet” was and mobile phones weighed 10 pounds.

Our personal favorite? Number 3: “Televised contests gave cash prizes to whoever could store the most data in their head.”

Showing up just a couple of days after the apparently much milder Playboy App, the “FapMapper” is a tool for those who care to share their favorite masturbation and public sex locations. Weird? Perhaps yes, but pretty ingenious.  Using GPS, you can click on a spot and give a short description of your exploits, such as “watching my neighbor water her plants. hot.”

As crazy as it sounds, hundreds of users have already signed on to publicize their public sex romps, with or without a partner. I guess my only gripe is how genuinely disturbing some of these people’s descriptions are… I guess you’re gonna have to go find out for yourself…

Starting January 5th, the Nexus One by Google will be on sale online at Google’s online phone store and in stores nationwide. At an astoundingly cheap $199 for an unlocked phone in stores, you’d be shocked to know that it gets cheaper- If you have a Google account, and buy online, the phone is a mere $99!

With features very similar to the iPhone, as well as the capability of using it on any network, could a phone rivaling the omnipresent iPhone finally have arrived?

When we first heard the iPhone had launched an app for Playboy, we were a little confused. Had the usually prudish Apple finally given in to a nudity-filled app? No dice. As TechCrunch reveals- this Playboy app will not have nudity, but will feature articles from the mag as well as stats and (clothed) photos of the Playmate of the month.

Of course, Playboy is known from some great articles, but let’s face it, the highlight of the magazine isn’t the text. That’s for sure! While we’re excited to get an app where we can check up on our favorite Playboy bunnies, it does seem a little strange that Apple didn’t approve Playboy’s nudity…

While technology and dating don’t always mix (Ever accidentally texted your Dad instead of your boyfriend? It can be a disaster. A really, really uncomfortable disaster.), Megan Berry over at the Huffington Post compiled a great list of tech helpers to help you get through a first date.

1) Yelp!

Yelp! Is a must have for a first date. It’s easy interface helps you find the highest rated restaurants, bars, and coffee shops in your area, complete with customer reviews and full information. That way, you don’t take your sexy new date to your “favorite all time pub” which was closed by the Health Department 4 months ago.

2)Dinner Spinner

Perhaps you’d like to impress your date with your superior cooking skills, when you realize they consist of poking the plastic on a HungryMan meal. Dinner Spinner will give you a great recipe using what’s already in your fridge. No salsbury steak tonight, Ladies Man!

3)Shazam

All you need is the hottie next to you to ask what the song playing is, and you’re in! Hold your iPhone out and Shazam will tell you the name of the song. Our experience says these apps are hit or miss. Be careful, and don’t accidently claim a song is Boyz II Men when it’s actually David Bowie.

4)Fake Calls

We’ve all been there. Your seemingly perfect date ends up being a total nutcase. A simple conversation has turned into her telling you that a cat’s soul is deeper than that of most grown men. Let Fake Calls come to your rescue with a pretend call from your mom, who’s been in a dreadful car accident.

5) F My Life

If after a long, miserable date, you find yourself really in the dumps, your best friend will be a bottle of scotch and the “F My Life” app. Maybe your date didn’t go exactly as planned, but at least your grandmother didn’t find your Playboy stash.  F that guy’s life!
