To clear up what he meant, it is that young people is far to stressed out (botox, iPad, clodes, sport, school, and WTF not). If you cant really relax perhaps we could either
1) Change the society a little?
2) Start drinking at a younger age
or something along these lines...

Earlier today Google's malware filter was blocking[^] php.net. Apparently the site was[^] serving attack iframes at one point.
What's even more dangerous though is that if you visit the site you might consider coding in PHP.

"Why the big pause?" Asks the barman.

Spookily enough I was driving into work today & thought of that joke - thought of posting it and then thought "nah! bound to be a Leslie & everyone will get up me for the lameness!"
Should've.

I am getting a new phone later today, as my current 'texting' phone has started powering off randomly and battery life is getting worse. So, I will finally join the rest of the herd and get a smartphone. Any advice on which ones to avoid or which you would highly recommend? My needs are basic...phone, email, messaging, appointments, web browser. The phone will not be used for viewing cat videos or other such fluff and will be on wifi most of the time. The ability to run Office365 would be nice, but not a deal breaker. Suggestions?

Well I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3, and very happy with it... Not tried Office365 on it as don't have a subscription. But found the S-Pen useful for taking notes and that.

After the first 3 iPhones, a blackberry 9700 and at least 3 Android phones I took the plunge on a windows phone this year and have been VERY happy with it. (Nokia 920.)
With google's "we're everywhere in your life" antics of late I'm not turning back, though I've nothing against an iPhone.

How much are you willing to spend? Will you be buying at standard carrier subsidy rates, from a low cost carrier with small/no subsidies, or full retail price for an unlocked phone?

I don't mind renewing a contract with my current provider, through a company account. As a small business though, we are hoping to renegotiate for a better deal. Not counting salaries, communications are nearly half of our business expenses. Not sure about the other options, but we won't be paying full retail. Thanks.

They (we) all say that at first, and then you fall and start watching cat videos when your project rebuilds!!! 
Anyway, they are pretty much all the same (iPhone, Samsung, Lumia, ...)
I suggest going to a store and have a look at them, see the size/weight of the different products and decide which one feels the best.
IMO, If you feel you really need an "office" thing, then you don't want a phone, you will be disappointed by the "experience" when trying to create content.
I'd rather be phishing!

I'd recommend a Nokia Lumia 820 or above, particularly if you plan to do any app/game development for Windows Phone. I have an 820 and it's great for all of the things that you mentioned. I have 7 Windows Phones (including the Nokia 620 & 900), 2 iPhones, and 1 Android - I use all of them for development purposes. The 820 is the first Windows Phone I've owned that I'd recommend to anyone and I actually use it as my primary phone now. I like it that much.
The 920/925/928 improve on the 820/822 with a higher resolution screen and better camera features. The 1020 is the ultimate camera-phone, a 41-Mpix camera-first Windows Phone (I'm planning to get one soon). But if you don't need the highest resolution screen or camera, then I recommend giving the 820 (AT&T) or 822 (Verizon) a look.

Thanks for the WP recommendation. The WP Lumina is my favorite so far. Based on popularity, does opting for a WP mean that you think different?

Repeating that comment in the wrongright place could cause certain people to drop dead of apoplexy.

No, just very slowly, and with frequent errors.

Low-cost Nokia Lumia Windows phones offer more than iOS and Android
http://www.zdnet.com/low-cost-nokia-lumia-windows-phones-offer-more-than-ios-and-android-7000015922/[^]
"There are very few low-end Android devices running the Jelly Bean software that was released in July 2012. Most run Ice Cream Sandwich while some even still run Gingerbread, a version of Android that was released in 2011. These devices tend to slow down with usage, have inconsistent user experiences, and have low quality cameras, and I often hear many frustrations from people with these devices."
Thats why I'm plannig change my Motorola Defy (Android) for a Lumia. (Sorry for bad English)

I have the Nokia 920, and really like it. The built in wireless charging is a very cool feature.
Only thing I don’t like about it is the application back / escape button also doubles as the browser back button. That's a pain...
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.
