Today I had the amazing opportunity to participate to raise awareness for #mentalhealth in the @ushinevienna event #utellit ! Nerve wrecking and overwhelming but also amazing to meet so many people that’s going thru the same journey.

My dad loves utellit.
My dad just turned 61 and for his birthday, I really wanted to buy him a Batman belt so he could holster in his iPhone, hospital pager, and pedometer. And if an iPad belt holder existed, I’m sure he would clip that on his belt too. The same guy – who didn’t have Cable TV until 1999 (“son, it’s for your own benefit”) and lectured my sister and me when we used star-69 to make-up for our caller ID-less house – is undergoing a technical renaissance. He has over 10 pages of apps on his iPhone and is now venturing to social media. My mom says he spends more time on Facebook liking and commenting than checking his stock portfolio (prior to the recent bloodbath) or listening to Bollywood music. He is also an avid follower of Dashfire’s partners’ tweets and recently earned the compliment: “Your dad is a baller. Only uncle i know on Twitter.”
So it was a no-brainer for Rishi and Arjuna, the founders of utellit, a new Dashfire partner, to select my dad as a beta tester. He is addicited. And although it is only a sample size of only one, we have identified our first key demographic. In just over two months, he has sent 158 utellits or 2.6 utellits per day mainly comprised of:
· “happy birthday” wall posts to his Facebook friends; · “long time no talk – hope all is well” texts to his doctor colleagues; · “why won’t you pick up my calls” messages to my sister; and · “you can’t beat me at racquetball” notes to me
Here is why my dad loves utellit: http://utell.it/am/SzL4d

Bringing Military Families Closer Together
I was on the phone with my friend, Eleni this week. Eleni and I have been friends for nearly 15 years and we’ve never even lived in the same city! She’s married to a career-Army man and has two beautiful children (ages 3 yrs. and 7 mos.). She recently found out that her husband, David, is being deployed to the Middle-East and has less than 90 days to prepare.
Clearly she isn’t looking forward to it, but Eleni has done this before. The last time it happened, however, the kids were not old enough to grasp what was happening and David has not left the children for an extended period of time since. Eleni told me how she and David were discussing how to deal with telling their oldest, Katy (a real daddy’s girl) where daddy was going. Everyday, Katy asks Eleni, “When is daddy coming home from work?” What do you tell her when you know he won’t be back for 9 months?
This discussion seemed to really hit David hard. As a goliath of a man who isn’t scared of anything, he went and laid with Katy in her bed and began to cry uncontrollably. He didn’t want to lose his amazing bond with the little person with whom he had grown so attached. What if she forgot him? What if she became angry with him for leaving? Eleni told me about this new product some of the other Army Moms were buying called a Daddy Doll. It’s a plush toy with an image of the father’s face in his uniform. I thought this was a brilliant idea. How better to help the vivid imagination of a child than a toy that looks like daddy that they can play with and sleep next to? But what about David? I have a tough time imagining rugged soldiers cuddling up with plush look-a-likes of their children. I later told Eleni about our product, Utellit (not even as a shameless plug) and that she made me realize how great it could be for military families. Setting up phone calls/Skype dates from opposite sides of the globe can be tricky, but with Utellit, you can record your little one doing something goofy or adorable and share it from your iPhone in just a few clicks. Likewise, Katy can hear her dad’s voice more regularly as the process is frictionless and does not involve any scheduling.
What do you think? Is Utellit a smart way for bring military families closer to one another? Let us know in the comments.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has added Community Playlists. According to a post on callofduty.com, a new title update will "add popular or unique private match modes to the public playlists, so you can start ranking up on them." The first playlist change is Drop Zone, which Infinity WardCreative Strategist Robert Bowling describes as a mode that has players "get to the drop zone to earn points. The first team to 7500 points wins the round, but thats not all. As long as the Drop Zone is occupied, a care package will drop every 15 seconds, which ever team has the most members in the drop zone at that point 'owns' the care package, but anyone can steal it. This is the only way to earn air support in this mode, all other pointstreaks are disabled. You'll earn 20 points per team member, for every second they're in the drop zone plus 20 XP individually for your time spent in the zone. Kills are worth 50 XP in this mode. Point streaks (besides those obtained through in-game care packages) are disabled." Other changes include Hardcore HQ Ricochet, which adds "Hardcore Headquarters to the Hardcore Team Tactical playlist," and Hardcore Ricochet, which converts "all Hardcore modes to Ricochet variant as a response to team killing. This means any friendly fire is applied to the attacker, rather than the victim. So choose your shots wisely and any attempt to team kill will simply kill yourself."
