Worth a Mention
Ever feel like you're the dumbest one in the office? You're not alone. A new study found women don't speak up in small group meetings if the folks around them are smart. You know the feeling -- everyone has brilliant ideas except you, and the more you speak, the dumber you sound. That's all in your head, but it's hard to convince yourself when it's happening! Source
They call it the "Doorway Effect," and I'd tell you what it is...but I forgot. Oh, that's right, it's when you suddenly forget what you wanted to do. For example, you realize you need a pair of scissors, so you run downstairs and as you walk into the kitchen, you totally forget the reason you came downstairs! What's behind this sudden memory loss? Literally, it's the doorway. Experts say your visual perspective changes when you walk through the doorway and it takes time to recalibrate your thinking. That's why your mind experiences a blip. Now, what were we talking about again? Source
Grab this app...soon. We'll finally have an app that solves the annoying reality of photobombing! We've all been a victim of a photobomber. It usally happens on vacation when you and your sweetie line up for that perfect shot, and the picture ends up being you, your sweetie, and some dufus walking past your picture and smiling at the camera. A new app called Remove for Android removes those people from the background of your photo. It will be introduced at the 2012 Mobile World Conference in Barcelona next week. Imagine the other uses you could get out of this app -- instant ex-boyfriend/ex-girlfriend remover!

Joke of the Day
A young girl came home from a date looking sad. She told her mother, “Charles proposed to me a few minutes ago.”
“Then why are you so sad?” her mother asked.
“Because he also mentioned he was an atheist. Mom, he doesn’t believe there’s hell!”
Her mother replied, “Marry him anyway. Between the two of us, we’ll show him how wrong he is.”
