Kelly Ripa Discusses Technology and Family

by Rebecca M Gruber 1

Talk about cell phone envy! I recently joined Kelly Ripa and Top Chef host Tom Colicchio to learn the key to throwing together a fast meal (see all of the details over on Yum). Following the cooking demonstration, I sat down with the Live With Regis and Kelly host, who was there with Electrolux to raise money for The Ovarian Cancer Research Fund, discuss why she won't let her kids – Michael, 13, Lola, 9, and Joaquin, 7 – use Facebook, her kid that's dying to have a cellphone, and her favorite iPhone apps as a mom.
