Top Five Must-Have Jailbroken Apps

 It's time for another Top Five, I'll have some tech news trailing this post shortly.

"iPhone's have a lot of potential locked away, which can only be accessed after jail-breaking the iPhone. Since jail-breaking was deemed legal in US Courts early in the year 2010, a slew of tools and apps have been produced making the process even more fruitful and easier to accomplish. In order to get the maximum reward out of jail-breaking, you'll need to download a few must-have apps..."

Facebook Attacks the Little Guys: Lamebook Lawsuit

As social networking gets more and more popular, all of those daily face-palm moments that would normally be forgotten after a week or so are now being cemented in status updates and tweets. A site dedicated to these moments, http://Lamebook.com is facing charges for supposed copyright infringement against Facebook. The reasoning is thin, but apparently this is a common practice for Facebook. They've gone after similarly named sites, such as "Placebook" and "Teachbook" for "making a trade off of Facebook's popularity."

Is Lamebook concerned? Not really, nor do I see a reason for them to be. As much as M-Zuck may think this is illegal, they've never actually taken it to court before. They "threatened" legal action and the sites just gave in, not wanting to deal with the court costs. They tried this with Lamebook, but Lamebook is putting up a fight and forcing them to work for their petty case. Now they're going to court and while they are not infringing upon Facebook's copyright, they DO need help covering the legal costs.

If you want to donate to the site, head over to Lamebook's Legal Fund and give them a few - or a lot. Whichever you prefer.

On another note, it seems that some things have just got out of hand on social networks. There's certain things that just shouldn't be written on an online profile. This one has a mixture of both oddness and very personal information.

Enjoy seeing ridiculous status updates? Keep Facebook from forcing Lamebook offline!

Don't Use Your iPhone for an Alarm Clock... Until the 3rd.

After New Years, it appears that the alarms set on iPhone's experienced it's own micro-Y2K. iPhones and iPod Touches have been found to have the correct day set, but with the year stuck in 2010. Maybe the iDevices have heard of the supposed impending doom in 2012, and are simply facing denial.

Either way, don't rely on your iPhone to get you up for work or in time for your favorite morning television show. Do they have those?

There is a way to possibly circumvent the alarm, set it up as a recurring alarm. Test it before you trust it though. Apple has commented on the bug and stated they would fix the issue by the 3rd.

Here's their words:
"We're aware of an issue related to non repeating alarms set for January 1 or 2. Customers can set recurring alarms for those dates and all alarms will work properly beginning January 3."
