Yesterday's WWDC event was an exciting place to be, especially since it was my first time at the annual conference. For those not as into tech, though, I admit that a developer's conference doesn't exactly sound scintillating, but Apple always does what it can to make their keynotes entertaining, like with musical guests. This year, my favorite pop culture reference was when they used a 30 Rock clip to demonstrate the need for the new Find My iPhone feature, with Liz Lemon being on the compromising end of a stolen iPhone and "adult photo."

Yesterday Jane Krakowski, who plays Jenna on 30 Rock, talked to us about the show, its characters, and guest stars, and I tried to get the scoop on next season. (I didn't.) Today she talks all about her character Jenna — as only Jenna would have it. How'd she become so in love with herself?

Yesterday I got the chance to talk to Jane Krakowski, who plays Jenna on 30 Rock. While she was promoting her Gone With the Wind webisodes for Breyers ice cream, she did dish on 30 Rock and her thoughts on costars Tina Fey, Alec Baldwin, and Tracy Morgan. Stay tuned for part II tomorrow, where she'll talk more about her character — the bubbly, lovely, and narcissistic Jenna.

On last night's 30 Rock, Liz Lemon adopts a Slanket as her loungewear of choice, after she convinces Tracy Jordan to buy his wife a better anniversary gift than a blanket with arms. But when Tracy learns what Angie really wants, he blames Lemon for forcing him to make a very difficult choice.
Depending on your relationship status, couples' tattoos can be a fine idea — or a very bad one.

Actress Salma Hayek has had quite the week in geekland! Not only did her MobileMe email account get hacked into (sorry, nothing scandalous to report), but she also appeared on 30 Rock wearing a Battlestar Galactica- inspired "What The Frak?!" shirt.

Is being a lady of leisure totally luxurious or dangerously overrated? On this week's episode of 30 Rock, Liz Lemon gets a taste of the sweet life when she's temporarily suspended from her job and starts running with a crowd of wealthy, nonworking women who occupy themselves with afternoon cocktails, shopping, massages, yoga, and refreshingly regular bathroom breaks. But Liz soon learns that all that pleasure can soon lead to pain.

Unlike Gossip Girl's questionable Apple status, 30 Rock is sponsored by Apple, and I noted a ton of Apple products before. In the most recent episode, more of the cast got newer Apple products, and to my delight, they actually got to put them to use! Check out the newest additions to the prop department at 30 Rock.

Having a new episode of The Office plus a new 30 Rock is enough to make me happy most Thursdays, but tonight's episodes have some special appeal. On 30 Rock, Jon Hamm is back as Liz's neighbor and incredibly understanding date, Drew, while on The Office, Idris Elba starts his six-episode run as a new boss at Dunder Mifflin going toe-to-toe with Michael Scott.
I'm excited to see a comedic side to Elba, who's best known as Stringer Bell on The Wire.

Yet another 30 Rocker has taken on the Republicans. I almost hope Louisiana's governor, Bobby Jindal, stays in the spotlight so we can see more of Jack McBrayer's (aka Kenneth the page) imitation. (Besides, Jindal's exorcism story hasn't even hit the mainstream yet.) Check out "Jack McBrayer's response to the Internet response to the Republican response to the President's address to Congress" in this preview clip from Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.
