Celebrity Buzz So there was just cause for all those Steve Jobs sickness/death rumors that were flying around the interwebs a few months ago. Turns out, the Apple CEO did need a new liver and recently got one. Could this also be a promo for a new product? Need a liver transplant? There's an app for that.

1980 was a confusing time for Apple, as you'll see in this classic magazine ad. Don't bite the forbidden fruit, Adam! Somewhere off set, Eve lies tangled in a sexy web of Steve Jobs' dreams.
Tech Buzz There's a rumor going around that Apple is in talks to buy Twitter for $700 million. None of the rumor-mongers has a compelling reason why Apple would do this, other than Twitter is cool, so definitely take this with a grain of salt. Unless it turns out to be true! In which case you heard it here first.
Plush Jobs may be very smart, but he's also super cuddly. For only $27.99, you can have your very own Plush Jobs — who will definitely tell you all the secrets about the next iPod.

Because you have none, Self Control is a little app that will block out the things that distract you. Set it to block your access to email, Facebook, GoldenGirls.com, whatever, for a specific length of time. Once it's running, there's no way to turn it off, so tread carefully. Dead simple (but for Mac OS X users only, sorry).

Exciting stuff!
Tech Buzz Apple announced juicy details about the operating system for the third generation of iPhones, including easier searches, audio/video streaming, and (yes!) cut and paste capability. Plus, the coolest ticklish virtual pet since Tamogatchi!

Footage from a 1983 Macintosh conference that's doing the rounds today features Steve Jobs hosting a “dating game” starring Bill Gates. The premise and the execution are just hopelessly dorky, but it's pretty amazing to see these two guys interacting and being all from the '80s and stuff.
