This poor apple just can't decide what color it wants to be. Good luck, little guy. People might not understand you, but you've got to be true to who you are, neither all red nor all green.

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 .

1. Jobs Had Liver Transplant
2. “There’s room for skepticism, however: Apple has remained quiet on the issue for months, insisting that Job’s health is his own concern. And yet such information has a significant effect on Apple’s stock price, creating an incentive to keep the details private: Apple’s investors would likely have become skittish if they’d known about Job’s surgery at the time.”
3. “When he does return, Mr. Jobs may be encouraged by his physicians to initially “work part-time for a month or two,” a person familiar with the thinking at Apple said. That may lead Tim Cook, Apple’s chief operating officer, to take “a more encompassing role,” this person said. The person added that Mr. Cook may be appointed to Apple’s board in the not-too-distant future.”

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).

TECH BUZZ: Apple's big announcements today: The next version of the iPhone's software will have (gasp!) copy & paste (swoon!) multi-media messaging. I'm sure there were some technical breakthroughs in there somewhere, but it's somehow hard to be excited that the iPhone has only just now caught up with every other cellphone out there when it comes to picture messages. Exciting stuff!

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.

TECH BUZZ: The Apple CEO is stepping down from his post until June, “to take [himself] out of the limelight and focus on [his] health.” Translation: Steve is really sick, and Apple's stock is going to crash. Sad news for Apple fans (and Steve).
