Website of the Day: Got Reception?
This may come as a shock to some of you, but sometimes cell phone shopping is not based on what someone can afford — no, sometimes people have to decide based on what service is best for them. Since I have crying jags when I'm in deadzones, I can empathize with the need for the very helpful website Got Reception?
Using a Google map and your zip code (or a zip code you might be visiting often), Got Reception tells you which cell phone company's service is strongest — or weakest — in a given area.
Does Your Phone Ever Drop Calls Due to Bad Reception?
I'm one of the lucky ones who hardly ever falls victim to phone carrier issues, choppy reception, or bad network areas. But I haven't always been so lucky. .
Celeb Style: Eva Herzigova
As we approach the holidays, I'm on the lookout for original party looks. Eva's wink may not be up to par, but the slick tuxedo-inspired look she wore to the 2010 Pirelli Calendar cocktail reception in London was beyond Fab. She dressed up her slight harem pants with delicate sandals, a draped white top, and a velvet blazer.
"No Signal" Cell Phone Reception Clips From Horror Flicks
Whenever I think of scary movies and phones, Scream instantly comes to mind — especially the gory Drew Barrymore kitchen scene — yikes! Back in the eighties and nineties, most horror movies had serial killers cutting phone lines so when the victim (usually helpless young women) went to call the police, the phone would be dead. Nowadays, screenwriters can't write this classic scenario into scripts because a majority of people have swapped their landlines for a cell phone.
Fun New "There's a Map For That" Verizon vs. AT&T Ad
Ha! Verizon is really getting cheeky. Not only has it copied Apple's "There's an App For That" ad campaign, but it's also gone head-to-head with AT&T saying that it has five times more 3G coverage in comparison to AT&T's spotty service.
Best Wedding Reception Ever

Stars Vogue For Classic Style at Bulgari Charity Reception
LBDs were the order of the day for the Vogue Bulgari Charity Reception at the Saatchi Gallery in London last night. Peaches Geldof, Natalie Imbruglia and Bonnie Wright all kept their outfits classic and simple at the party to support Save The Children's Rewrite the Future campaign as part of Bulgari jewellery's 125th birthday celebrations, while James Corden brought a pop of colour with his bright jacket and shoes as he hung out with pal Dominic Cooper. The newly blonde Peaches provided some entertainment later in the evening by taking to the decks.
Let's Dish: What Are Your Wedding Pet Peeves?
When I chatted weddings with Gail Simmons a couple of weeks ago, she shared her tips for hosting an eco-friendly big day and let me know her wedding pet peeves. "When the wedding doesn't reflect the personality of the couple, that really bugs me." Also on her list: a menu that lacks creativity, and dessert buffets.
