15. Don't feel bad. I was had by Google (almost)
I was doing a Google search on my iPod and I notice a place on the Google search page labeled "Try Brain Search" I clicked it and it told me to hold the iPod next to my head and think of what I wanted to search. Amazing as the iPod Touch is, I didn't bite.
