I just played this quirky little point'n'click game which I recommend to anyone wanting to relax and enjoy some very nice graphics. It's pretty short so it's not going to keep you busy long but it's fantastical and fun.

The Zero Punctuation Halo 3 review

2007-10-09T20:09:00.000+02:00

I don't normally go too "game-geek" on here, but this just made me laugh!

And while I'm embeding videos: Here is a Japanise comedy sketch (subtitled in English) which is making fun of computer games.

2007-09-27T20:00:00.000+02:00

If you like puzzles then beware!!! Backflip is a black hole for time! It's a very nicely presented community fed puzzle game with puzzles appearing faster than you can complete them! It's so mean that they put a 'percentage complete' right on the front page!!!

Save energy - turn off your house!

2007-08-14T14:57:00.000+02:00

Ever wanted to turn off your house?

2007-07-21T12:19:00.000+02:00

What a great idea: Gain XP and level up your character by doing household chores in Chore Wars! It's still not going to get me to clean my flat, but I still like the concept!

2007-07-19T19:17:00.000+02:00

It's time to lay the smack down like only a modern 19th century lady can, with a good old fashioned slap-fight!

Breaking News: All Online Data Lost After Internet Crash

OMG ;)

2007-06-22T19:09:00.000+02:00

Well now this is an interesting idea. Play UK gameshows in your browser, complete with full motion video. It's actually very well done and feels very TV like... Including the adverts... Which annoyed my... Just like real TV... Which I then turn off... Just like these games...

I guess I'll stick with lolcats. Cute pictures of cats with humourous leetspeak slogans pasted on top? How can you possibly say no?

Microsoft Surface

Photosynth Technology Preview

2007-05-17T14:17:00.000+02:00

I stumbled upon this tech preview today and have been playing around with it for a while.

It's legendary!!! (ok liddle inside joke with bunny here ;) )

But it's really kind of funky. Photosynth is a project to build a 3D Model out of many pictures taken from the same object or building.

The tech preview is a model from Markus Place in Venice.

So have fun my geeky friends ;)

2007-04-18T22:39:00.000+02:00

This video has been going around the net. I don't think you'd need to be a game-geek in order to recognise the characters but it might help. Either way, it made me laugh.

Free wireless broadband via users' plumbing systems

2007-04-13T00:42:00.000+02:00

Google has just announced the launch of Google TiSP (BETA)(TM), a free in-home wireless broadband service that delivers online connectivity via users' plumbing systems. All the dark fibre that google has supposedly laid out is now fully operational! Check out the description of how it works.

ok ok ... 1st of April is far away ...but I did like the story anyway ;)

Serenity named top sci-fi movie

Ficlets

2007-04-02T10:31:00.000+02:00

Are you a writer of fiction? Do you struggle writing complete novels? Would you like to work collaboratively with other writers? (Yes Bunny, I'm talking to you)

Ficlets: "A ficlet is a short story that enables you to collaborate with the world.

Once you've written and shared your ficlet, any other user can pick up the narrative thread by adding a prequel or sequel. In this manner, you may know where the story begins, but you'll never guess where (or even if!) it ends."

What Are You Doing?

2007-03-22T09:23:00.000+01:00

Twitter exists to answer one question - What are you doing?

You setup an account and log in, then describe what you're up to in 140 characters or less. Update your current activities via the website, SMS or instant message. Add your friends and be kept abreast of what they are up to by 'following' them. Their updates can be sent to you via text message, or simply viewed on the home page.

Set your sleep time and you won't be disturbed by updates through the night either. And if you're the forgetful type, set the auto-nudge feature to be reminded by SMS if you haven't updated today.

Twitter: The Next Big Thing In Blogging(tm), a colossal waste of time, or a voyeuristic stalker's paradise?

All of the above...

Alternative Wii use...

2007-02-03T19:21:00.000+01:00

Why not use your controllers to mix records in the clubs?
How about using a cinema for the ultimate in big-screen tv action?
Maybe control your whole house using the wii-mote?
Lose weight with the official 6-week Wii-workout?
Perhaps you just want to damage your family pet?

WiiKitty

2006-12-27T14:37:00.000+01:00

It's not often I get to post a link that'll appeal to both Bunny and Dew, but I think WiiKitty might just fit the bill!

2006-12-14T20:33:00.000+01:00

Death Kitty and the Fat Man

2006-11-30T22:19:00.000+01:00

Time for some link-fluff.

Ms Dewey is utterly pointless. It's a fairly porr search engine but they've put various video clips of a woman on the front who makes comments about what you're searching for. There are also various start-up animations. She responds to many phrases including "computer game", "halo", "windows", "gun", "bitch", "playstation", "shopping"... You get the general idea...

And following on from the whole Wii theme... How about Wii have a problem!

Wii!!!!

2006-11-21T20:26:00.000+01:00

Being a true hardcore gamer requires a level of commitment above and beyond the average guy or gal on the street. A true hardcore gamer is passionate and unflinching in the face of hardship. Hardcore gamers are role-models for modern society... Just like this guy.

2006-09-27T23:04:00.000+02:00

And now for a needless post about sex: Firstly, Graduate women more likely to orgasm: official and secondly Scientists see women's brains switch off during sex. Don't think I am unable to see the irony in me posting about sex, but I couldn't resist.

Dancing Matt

2006-09-19T10:42:00.000+02:00

'Matt is a 29-year-old deadbeat from Connecticut who used to think that all he ever wanted to do in life was make and play videogames. He achieved this goal pretty early and enjoyed it for a while, but eventually realized there might be other stuff he was missing out on. In February of 2003, he quit his job in Brisbane, Australia and used the money he'd saved to wander around the planet until it ran out. He made this site so he could keep his family and friends updated about where he is.

A few months into his trip, a travel buddy gave Matt the idea of dancing everywhere he went and recording it on his camera. This turned out to be a very good idea. Now Matt is quasi-famous as "That guy who dances on the internet. No, not that guy. The other one. No, not him either. I'll send you the link. It's funny."'

He's also on YouTube.

Maybe Dew's friend Vic will do something equally as silly...

That really is a cool idea for a car advert...

2006-08-12T15:19:00.000+02:00

Two things:
Firstly, a funny video which Faelkle sent. (I think this is great!)
Secondly, an example of geek office humour.

Pug bowling

2006-07-20T13:14:00.000+02:00

A guy took some plastic bowling pins, glossed his hardwood floors, and got his girlfriend's Pug to chase a laserpointer into the pins. I wonder if he still has a girlfriend?

My favorite Muppet song

Can't work

Hung Chow calls into work and says, "Hey, I no come work today, I sick, headache, stomach ache, legs hurt, I no come work."

The boss says, "You know something, Hung Chow, I really need you today. When I feel like this, I go to my wife and tell her to give me sex. That makes everything better and I go to work. You try that."

Two hours later Hung Chow calls again. "I do what you say, I feel great. I be work soon ... you got nice house."

Girls Buying things when they are unhappy in love

2006-07-02T12:06:00.000+02:00

Interesting. I think Girls buy things. Period. Whether happy or not. They spend money since they like to spend money. Why does anyone need a study about this?

UK mobile phone users can now access Google news and email

Now for some computer game related links:

Uwe Boll, the man responsible for many many MANY terrible movies based on computer games, has decided to prove that he is in fact a very good director... He has decided to prove this by beating up people who've said bad things about him. (Doesn't that seem like so much smarter a solution than, say, creating a good film!?)Read about it here and here.

Or maybe you'd like to watch a reality tv web show about a guy who is completely obsessed with creating the next World of Warcraft. Did I mention that he doesn't have a games studio or developers working for him? He's a part time bell-hop and his fellow programmers are all on the internet! It's called Creating Kaos and part one and two are available...

A puzzle game to pass some time

2006-06-08T20:17:00.000+02:00

After I spend hours at the slightly hypnotising game bunny posted I take my revenge by blogging a game of my own. It's a kind of addictive 3d puzzle game.

Have fun :)

2006-06-01T20:36:00.000+02:00

Flow is a curious little web game (although maybe game isn't quite the right word.) It seems to be part of a thesis. You basically direct your little creature around eating up other creatures. I doubt most of you will find it particularly interesting, but I got caught up playing it for a good couple of hours so I'm going to post it!

More pictures and Visual Art

2006-06-01T20:34:00.000+02:00

I got inspired by bunny's post...
so enjoy those pictures as well :)

2006-05-31T23:55:00.000+02:00

You may have seen many of these pictures before, but there were a few which were new to me and the old ones are still cool.

Why do the English only speak English?

2006-05-10T12:35:00.000+02:00

The British have never had much of a taste for learning foreign languages and as English becomes Europe's lingua franca, that stubbornness is starting to pay off. But if everyone else can speak English, what does that mean for our sense of identity?

Interesting article.....

Picture Editing Tool - where ever you go

2006-05-09T20:34:00.000+02:00

I found this nice liddle image editing tool. You don't even need to install anything. Ok the functions are quite basic but it's better than Paint on Windows ;)

2006-05-05T19:51:00.000+02:00

Now this video is pretty funky. It's from a French film called Banlieue 13 (or District 13 if you so prefer.) I think the plot from the video goes something like this:

Thug One: Are you sure this is the guy who stole my My Little Pony?
Thug Two: Yeah. I was listening at the door before. He was making horse noises.
Thug One listens at door.
Thug One: If he's hurt Pooky then I'm going to loose it!

Que cool chase scene...

Thug stood on roof top: Damn... Now we'll never see Pooky again! And I spent hours braiding her mane and painting her toenails!

OK... Now for one or two more parkour (or free running) videos usually featuring David Belle. (Do I get a prize for the most links in one sentence?)
