Textecution

Just heard about this new little function you can add to your phone for *only* 9.95! :) It's actually a pretty nifty little thing, if it actually works. It's called Textecution and what it does is disables all of the internet functions from your phone (including text, email, internet, etc.) when you are going over 10 mph. I bet mom wishes she knew about this when I was a teenager! :) I definitely think more parents should invest in this, because from what I've read, texting while driving is actually more dangerous than drinking while driving. (Not that I advocate either one!) (And yes, I know that article is from the UK, but alcohol, texting, and driving are the same in all countries. Different languages or not!) Either way, it may be something cool to try out if you find yourself texting while driving-no matter how safe you think you do it!

I think that is a really great idea. Kudos to whoever thought of it. I'm thinking it might get annoying at some times but hey its keeping you safe! Parents should definitely know about this.
