A phone’s features are only valuable if you can get to them quickly. Having to navigate through several screens just to get to Search and Maps is so 2008. Windows® Phone 7 makes it easier.
The new Windows Phone gives you access to Bing with the click of a button. Bing saves you time by suggesting Search terms based on your entry, feeds you local news, and shares nearby areas of interest on the Map. Plus—you can access all of this information via Voice Search. Where’s the nearest pizza restaurant? When is the movie playing? What’s the fastest way to get around the city? Bing Maps gives you turn-by-turn directions, as well as a street-level view of your final destination.

Your phone and Facebook – two things you use every day that don’t always play nice together. This is a shame because the most interesting Facebook updates come not from people sitting at home doing nothing, but from people who are out in public experiencing new things.
The Windows Phone 7 combines the best of both worlds, bringing your contacts and Facebook together in a way that makes social networking on the go a whole lot easier. The People Hub is social media central, a place where you can see what your friends are doing and where you can let them know what you’re doing. The innovative Me Card lets you update your status or change your profile picture across multiple social networking sites, all from your phone. Check out the new Windows Phone here.

Meet Windows® Phone 7, a phone that’s designed for how you actually interact with it—not how someone else thinks you should. It’s the only phone with a Start Screen and Live Tiles, allowing you to see everything you care about—faster.
The Start Screen is where the action is. It’s customizable and updates constantly. Animated Live Tiles show pending messages and appointments, news and weather, and game and friend status. And it’s all refreshed wirelessly through the web. You can add friends, apps, play lists, photos and other favourites to the Start Screen, making them easy to access. And as an added bonus? You can update all of your social media accounts at once. That alone should save you oodles of time every week. Check out the new Windows Phone here.

Microsoft is throwing a very big, very user-friendly hat into the ring of the next generation of smart phones with their new Windows Phone. Take what you like and dislike about the iPhone and the Droid, and ignore it. This is totally different.
The big things to think about here are the Hubs. These are dedicated places on your Start screen that amalgamate relevant content. Mouthful? Yeah. Here’s what that means. There’s a hub for people where all the info you need from Facebook, and other social networks is fed. There’s a Hub for music and video where you can browse through your media, there’s another for office stuff where you can stay on the ball at work. And, they’re all updated on a second-to-second basis. Beat that (pro tip: you can’t). Check it out here.

Midgets have never had an easy row to hoe. And, now, they’ve got mascots standing in their way. Two tribes from the edge of sportsdom are clashing on the gridiron, on the court, in parking lots, and, really, anywhere they meet.
And you’re in on the action. 5 little people take on 5 normal-sized mascots in a series of 30 ridiculous competitions, and the overall winner of this mad competition is awarded a million dollar prize. Self-described as “Borat meets Jackass,” “Midgets versus Mascots” takes the intoxicated fever dreams of every young man’s fight fantasy and puts them on film. It’s not just random, hobo-level midgets and no-name mascots from the middle of nowhere, either. Perhaps you’ve heard of Scottie Pippen. Perhaps you’d like to see him pummel a little person in rage. Certainly, that’s something we can get behind. The piece de resistance, though, comes in the comically cute leader of the little people (both culturally and in the film), the one and only Gary Coleman.

Paranormal Activity is the new Blair Witch. It’s Blair Witch for people that say that Blair Witch “wasn’t scary enough” or people that say Blair Witch was “totally effing scary, but awesome.” Whatever you say, this is a legitimately nerve-racking flick.
But, you might not be able to see it. The film was extremely low budget – only $15,000 to shoot. And, similarly, didn’t have the scrilla for mass distribution or marketing. But, having taken all the things Blair Witch did wrong and doing them very, very right, audiences have responded positively. So, go to this site right here and vote. You enter your information, but it won’t be used to spam you, it will just count a vote toward your area of the country. Good luck.

Don’t worry, we’re not going to get all political on your ass and start suggesting the crazy lefts and rights (or even fence sitters). What we got here is a …
