So the big news yesterday was that dating site OkCupid released stats that iPhone users have more sex than users of Android or Blackberry devices.  Looking at the stats that OkCupid provided, it also looks like iPhone users sleep around more than users of the other two devices. I can only wonder where my Samsung Ace would rate on the chart. It’s pretty hot if you ask me. This morning on the Scott & Todd show they discussed the survey results and were wondering where the new Droid X would rank on the sex scale.

With all of that said, I’d like to share with you the REAL reason iPhone users are having more sex than with the other devices. Cartoon artist Guhmshoo put together the following cartoon which provides the sex argument explanation.

The big news in the Apple blog crowd this week was the Steve Jobs announcement that current customers will receive a free bumper guard for their iPhone 4 devices. I like Om’s take on the press briefing – a look at lessons from Apple CEO Steve Jobs.

But what if the press briefing didn’t go so well? Guhmshoo takes a look at the setup Apple staffers created for Jobs just in case panic and mayhem were to break out at Apple’s HQ.

We’ve been “homo sapiens” for quite a long time. I don’t know about you but I often wonder what’s next after this current stage of human evolution. Guhmshoo takes a look at what might be next — Homo Textus. This evolutionary change comes from his research watching people use text messaging devices and the way they arch and position their body to create a piece of content on the device.

This week cartoon artist Guhmshoo took a look at two popular trends: Twitter’s new downtime due to soccer/football and the apparent issue with pre-ordering an iPhone4. I like the sarcasm noted in both cartoons displayed below.

Today is apparently the big “quit Facebook day” – the day when billions of people around the world will delete their Facebook pages. I lined up in Times Square for one hour thinking it was the line to get to the Facebook deletion machine but it turned out to be a line for free hot dogs. If you are going to delete your Facebook page, you should probably do it on video — bonus points for doing it live!

The official quit Facebook day website shows 32,000 people have confirmed that they will quit today. How many actually delete their page is anyone’s guess.

This is probably a great use case for the new Meetup Anywhere platform. People can setup “delete my Facebook page” meetups all over the world and then get together for the event – maybe that “space” site could sponsor the meetups.

Last week comic creator Guhmshoo took a look at all of the privacy changes over at Facebook HQ.  Tonight he goes a bit deeper with the Facebook social plugins and specifically the Like button. I think Facebook would be smart to just say that everything you post on Facebook is public. The concept of a “friend” is just no longer valid within their network.

This week comic creator Guhmshoo has taken a look at all of the privacy changes over at Facebook HQ. I wonder if Facebook will release stats on how many users have opted-out of their new “we share everything with our partners” plan.

We’ve covered several of Guhmshoo’s cartoons including the Twitter Ad System, Happy Dependence Day and the shilling bloggers.
