What technology is absent from the Walking Dead?

There's not going to be a best answer for this question, in case whoever makes what would be the best answer misses something.

Robert Kirkman hasn't set an exact date for when the Walking Dead started, but he has set the year for 2003. Since the first issue came out on October 8th, I'm using that as the time setting for a "choose your adventure" game, and it's based off the Walking Dead. I haven't decided on a location, but I'm leaning towards my state, since it's familiar to me.

Obviously if they're using an alternate timeline, they can't have the technology we have in 2012, since civilization breaks down, and all that chewy goodness. For this reason, I want you fine ladies and gentlemen to brainstorm and come up with common, modern conveniences that were invented after October 8, 2003.

Be sure to look at all the answers and refresh the page to look at new ones before you post what you come up with. Oh, and makes and models don't count.

I'll start us off with something easy: Facebook was invented in 2004.

That means all they had was Myspace, and that site launched two months before the dead came back to life.

Just one more: Youtube was launched in 2005.

They didn't have youtube! What could be worse!?

And don't just look up every website, or just websites. Any scrap of technology, but it has to be commonly known and used, in other words, had a significant impact on peoples' daily lives.

Note: In case anybody's curious, I put this under "Television" because I assume the TV adaptation is commonly known among fans of the comic and fans of the TV show alike. And fans of the game.
