I don't know if this works, but here's what NYTimes' article on "Low-Tech Fixes for High-Tech Problems" tells you to do.

It could happen to anyone: you dropped your cellphone in the toilet. Take the battery out immediately, to prevent electrical short circuits from frying your phone’s fragile internals. Then, wipe the phone gently with a towel, and shove it into a jar full of uncooked rice.

It works for the same reason you may keep few grains of rice in your salt shaker to keep the salt dry. Rice has a high chemical affinity for water — that means the molecules in the rice have a nearly magnetic attraction for water molecules, which will be soaked up into the rice rather than beading up inside the phone.

Meghan Mccain tells GOP it's time to embrace technology and so do I!  Last November, while GOP struggled with a non-text messaging presidential campaign and a nominee who confessed to being computer-illiterate, the Obama administration had the internet under their belt.

In a column on the Daily Beast Web site, the daughter of Sen. John McCain says the party's lack of tech savvy contribute to her father's defeat. "Until the Republican Party joins the twenty-first century and learns how to use the Internet, its members will keep getting older and the youth of America will just keep logging on to the other side."

And maybe some republicans are finally getting it - According to TweetCongress.org, more Republicans are now on the popular social networking site Twitter than are Democrats (Yes, congresspeople are on Twitter!).  Also, CNN reports that the recent election for the Republican Party Chairman heavily revolved around who was best positioned to modernize the party's use of technology.
