Play Guitar Hero on Your BlackBerry

This is about as anti-productivity as you can get, and at first glance I honestly thought it was an April Fool's joke, but it's quite real: Activision just announced that uber-popular console game Guitar Hero is now available for BlackBerry.

The game, a 3-button version of the original, comes with 15 tracks from artists like Santana and Red Hot Chili Peppers. Your purchase of the game also entitles you to three new tracks per month for one year.

Ah, just what BlackBerry users need: A reason to spend more time thumbing their devices. All the more reason to insist on gadget-free meetings in your office. Anyway, Guitar Hero is available for other mobile phones as well. The BlackBerry version costs $14.99.
