Surfing on Black Friday

On Black Friday people spent $816 million on online sales, a 26% increase of last years sales.  With this increase it will only be a matter of time till going and sitting at the local Wal-Mart waiting in the cold for that 42in lcd flat screen tv will be pointless to do.  On Thanksgiving day people spent $479 million a 18% increase over last years numbers.  Now the only question remains is that where will you sitting at on those crazy mega superduper sales?

Ford reading Your text

Ford motor company has announced that there 2012 vehicles will have voice recognizition technology except the ranger. This technology is supposed to reduce texting and driving which cause alot of accidents with in the US. With the 2012 vehicles getting this upgrade the older models will be able to get it as well. Some of the phones that can connect is the Blackberry some of the Android phone but none of the iPhones. It is also a wonder that this hasn't been implemented in every car today.
I am all of the technology to be place in our vehicles. I'm tired of seeing people text an talk on there phones while driving now days instead of watching the road.
