Apparently the iPhone is going to change the way we live. It's going to cure cancer and solve global warming, all after bringing peace to the Middle East! Oh, wait, those are what it's NOT going to do. But it's still going to change our very way of life! Emailing photos! Smart mobs! Oh no, privacy still kind of exists! What to do??

So wonders a UC Santa Barbara professor, and unfortunately, also someone your tuition is paying. I will refrain from lamenting that further if Howard Rheingold of the Comm department will agree to teach a student-initiated course heavy on the LOL:

"im in ur class, lerning about t3h internetz"

What the iPhone might actually change is the amount of porn viewed in McDonald's bathrooms. Don't try to pretend that sort of thing isn't going to happen like every 5 minutes. Also, even fewer people will pay attention in class (contrary to popular belief, this is not the only place you can read ESPN.com!), but I won't go so far as to suggest they'll be watching porn, too.
