Adultery… again.

, ,

We recently posted about professional individuals seeking a little romance on the side. Well adultery isn’t just for the grown-ups anymore. Apparently, this is a growing problem amongst our youth as well. Perhaps if our professional adulterants had seen this gem when they were in 6th grade, things wouldn’t be so difficult for them now.

Barring the fact that the majority of creatures featured in this video are not monogamous, the message is indisputable… Hey, kids! Stop cheating!

ChatRoulette. About as frightening as it sounds…

, , ,

With the rise of social media giants like Facebook, Twitter, and even Skype, something like this was just bound to happen. Maybe Twitter needs to be more visual. Maybe Facebook needs to be more interactive. Maybe Skype is too limited. Enter the newest fad in social media: ChatRoulette.com.

ChatRoulette is based on the simple principle that “profound human connection happens by the luck of the draw”. The new social networking site allows users to hook up their webcams, log on to the site, and immediately be connected with an anonymous stranger. If they’re not into it, the user simply needs to click “Next” to move onto the next, potentially stranger, stranger.

Anyone else thinking “stranger danger”?

Intelius offers advice on straying spouses

, , ,

The Tiger Woods fiasco has everyone buzzing about infidelity and wronged wives wielding golf clubs. Intelius, a Bellevue, Washington based company headed by former Microsoft executive Naveen Jain, has offered some advice to anyone who suspects their significant other isn’t walking the straight and narrow.

Intelius says that Elin Nordengren could have used technology to catch her husband in the act. Intelius offers five tips on catching A Cheatin’ Heart in the act. The site Hollywood Life published Intelius’ suggestions:

  1. Google Latitude: This app can be downloaded on your Smartphone…and then you can “accidentally” leave the phone in your spouse’s car. It will keep track of the spouse’s general location as long as your Smartphone has GPS.
  2. Intelius Reverse Directions: With this tool, you can plug in a cell phone number, and Intelius will find the address it is associated with. Or you can put in an email address, and Intelius will try to find a match. With its massive public information database, Intelius can legally tap into public records and find out where these strange emails and middle-of-the-night phone calls are coming from.
  3. Slydial: Slydial allows you to dial a number’s voice mailbox without the person knowing. This way, you can avoid any confrontation while you’re getting an idea of a suspicious phone number on your straying lover’s cell phone.
  4. Social Media: Another way to monitor your potential playboy/playgirl is check out their social media space on Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace. If some strange man or woman is always leaving comments on their profile, you may want to look into that.
  5. Webcam: This should be only used as a last resort to document any cheating going on.
