I doubt that the designer's concept prison blogging system will be in use anytime soon, but the mockups are hilarious.

I love it when a designer adds a dash of humor to what seems like a clever idea. Security risks would be minimal as contact lists could be limited and managed and a system like this could improve quality of life for prisoners.
Of course, you might not feel that prisoners deserve and improvement in their quality of life or simpler ways of communicating with the outside world, so let's all just agree that the design mockups are funny. [Yanko Design (http://www.yankodesign.com/2010/01/27/prison-diary-online/)]
