Miss Teen South Carolina, 18-year old Lauren Caitlin Upton finally managed to give a good answer to the same question that she failed miserably on national television. Interviewed on NBC’s Today show, she answered

“I would love to re-answer that question,” the Miss Teen South Carolina said. “Well personally, my friends and I, we know exactly where the United States is on our map. I don’t know anyone else who doesn’t. And if the statistics are correct, I believe there should be more emphasis on geography.”

That was like a thousand times better than the on-stage answer. However, the damage has been done and thanks to the uncontrollable power of the internet, she is now being labelled as, please excuse my language, a dumb blonde.

Various spoofs of her answer has already been uploaded on youtube, such as this, where her so-called “parents” reacting to the answer here.

Watch Ms South Caroline redeems herself on NBC.

Google in partnership with BMW has announced an in-car google local search, where you can do a business or service location search using BMW’s in-car navigation system. The search result will then be shown through Google maps. This service has started in Germany.

Well - looks like those who wants to be a chauffeur, specifically driving a BMW, will need to know how to use the Google map search. I think this kind of service is really useful and a life-saving tool for ambulances and paramedics, in case they need to reach to a location like pronto. Of course, they need to install this on the ambulances and firetrucks.

Soon we’ll see warning signs on the road “No Googling while Driving”.
