RIM announces WebWorks development kit, in-app payments, ad platform, and BBM API
RIM's BlackBerry Developer Conference is going down this week in San Francisco, and as you might expect from a developer-focused event, there are a handful of newsy items that'll affect the development community first and consumers down the road. Here's a roundup of what's what: WebWorks development platform. From what we've heard of this so far, it's basically a quick way for web devs to get into the BlackBerry app game by offering a tightly-integrated platform for HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript code with hooks to native BlackBerry OS functions and a packager for turning them into "real" BlackBerry apps.

Dual SIM iPhone 4 case gives your multiple personality disorder a new lease on life
Sure, there are any number of phones with dual SIM card slots , most of them built for Asian markets, but the iPhone 4 is about the furthest thing from dual SIM: in fact, it doesn't even have one Big Person SIM to call its own. Luckily, USBFever has a hacktastic solution to this problem (a followup to their iPhone 3G version ), with a new $30 case that can host dual full size SIM cards on the back of an iPhone 4 (entombed in some classy clear plastic, naturally), while running an adapter to the iPhone 4's micro SIM slot. You can then switch between the two SIMs from the iPhone's own settings menu, though unfortunately you can't rock both SIMs simultaneously.

Girls, how should I really approach this?
I am a heterosexual boy who had a fetish severe enough for smooth, sexy female feet, as I can remember. My ex-boyfriend feet were absolutely wonderful and was approached by a model on foot. I have other friends who have beautiful feet. A friend has so many foot care products in his bathroom with all the different product companies Avon Footworks, Nexus, Estée Lauder, etc, all standing. I think what should be standing alone (which are very nice). I did not say anything and went in anyway. On two occasions, I got the smell of his socks they smell fruity and pleasant … Lives in a tumultuous relationship with a violent, narcissistic Guy. I have to say something … or simply my thoughts and fantasies to myself?
