According to the material that is coming out of the University of Utah, (David Strayer), listening does not help that much. It is still dangerous.
It is better to listen to text messages when driving and concentrate on the road rather than end up in hospital. I use drivesafe.ly mobile application to make sure my concentration is on driving.

Hi Friend:
I hope your day is going well for you. I ran across some cool software that I think you'll be interested in and can help you hide folders and files on your computer. This can come in real handy when you have sensitive files that you want to keep private from prying eyes. Use Hide Those Folders software to keep private files from being viewed by children, employers, employees, and even hackers!
Hide Those Folders will hide your sensitive files and folders so that they can't be seen or accessed. Files stay hidden even if you turn on "View Hidden Files" Even links in your recent documents menu won't be able to find your hidden files or hidden folders.
The best part is that Hide Those Folders offers a FREE "Try Before You Buy" trial.

Anthony Buza said… - I am a graduate student at Eastern Michigan University and I am interested in social networking sites. I am gathering data about various SNS and have a few quick questions for you.
At your earliest convenience, can you answer the following questions: (1) What was your goal in creating this network? (2) Assuming your network is still growing, how successful has it been so far? (3) What frustrations have you experienced with your social network, if any? (4) What advice can you give to other educators starting up their own social network?
Thank you in advance for your help.

May I interview you via Skype in May re ideas in your new work that highlight how people have used their mobile to accomplish something together that they would not have done on their own?
I am in San Francisco area. To handle our time difference, I am in Pacific Standard time. See the blog+podcast movingfrommetowe to see what we cover.
