15. Orangutans using iPads

15. Orangutans using iPad. [ION] I will leave you with this gem today. There's really no more excuses for any human being saying that they can't figure out how to use their iPads. It's so easy to work, even a monkey could figure it out. LITERALLY!
Orangutans living in captivity will soon start using iPads for primate play-dates, using Skype or FaceTime to interact with their brethren in other zoos, according to zookeepers. The great apes have been playing with iPads for about six months at the Milwaukee County Zoo, and they’ve been such a hit that other zoos plan to introduce them, too. The “Apps for Apes” program started after a zookeeper commented online about getting some iPads for her gorilla charges. Someone donated a used iPad, and it turned out the gorillas didn’t care for it. But the orangutans loved it, as the LA Times says.
