<iframe width=”425″ height=”349″ src=”http://www.youtube.com/embed/sxMgwZ7hC3c” frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe>

Vlingo application for iPhone, it is available fo Blackberry, Android & various other devices. Currently, it is only able to update Facebook and Titter for Social Networks via voice command. I expect Vlingo

While this video shows the to expand this to additional Social Networks but in the meantime its still a pretty nice app and will make it a little safer for folks updating on the road because we never text update while we drive ;) . It will even do voice cammands for Google searches, map directions and much more. Best part, its FREE !
