This is a review of the latest Mi-Fi, aka mobile Wi-Fi, from 3. It’s an Huawei E568 device. If you’ve not heard of Huawei before, don’t worry, they’re a significant brand in this space. In fact, my 3G dongle I have from work is branded in the colours of a mobile network but my laptop […]
What you need to know: “Let’s talk iPhone”
Today, Apple hosted an event called “Let’s talk iPhone”. OMG! The iPhone 5 is coming! Wait, wait… I’m sure the iPhone 5 is coming but today’s announcement was about the iPhone 4S. Actually, today’s announcement was an easy introduction to Tim Cook – the new Apple CEO. He didn’t even get to introduce the iPhone […]
Samsung Central Station Wireless Monitor: Unboxing goes horribly wrong
What’s your view on unboxing videos? Some people wish they would crawl off to the plane of Lawful Evil and die. Other people point out there’s a huge difference between unboxing videos which really just show a product coming out of a box and those unboxing videos that go a step further and show the […]
Pope Vader: I find your lack of faith disturbing
You remember the line; “I find your lack of faith disturbing”. Here’s a picture that will let you remember the famous Star Wars line in a brand new way. You can have two mental images of Vader now. Darth Vader and the new Pope Vader. Disturbing!
Wall tentacle – Halloween costumes for your house?
In the comment section below I’d love to know what you make of this Wall Tentacle? I suspect it speaks to Cthulhu fans (hopefully not literally) and may appeal to nautical biologists and their breed. Would it appeal to anyone else? No need to mention the hentail brigade. My first concern was how hard this […]
The Archiver
The Archiver is a high quality short animated sci-fi from Thomas Obrecht, Guillaume Berthoumieu and Marc Menneglier. It was done to promote Artfx.fr, a school teaching 3D computer graphics, in Montpellier in France. At times I was reminded of BSG while watching this. Then I was reminded, worried about, Portal. You’ll have to watch it […]
Lego built Gears of War Rifle features motorised saw
This is impressive. Are you a Gears of War fan? You’ll recognise this life-sized War Lancer Assult Rifle. It was built by PLUM B and is awesome This amazing gun as its own clip, a saw blade that moves and shoots elastic bands. Engineering wizardry. As a reminder; here’s the Lego brick weapon.
Doctor Who time earrings: Timey Wimey
I rather like these Doctor Who earrings. They’re wibbly wobbly, timey wimey earrings and since they’re earrings I imagine they’ll flip and flutter around as they dangle from the ears of a true Whovian fangirl. They’ll wibble and wobble. This pleases me. You can find them, of course, etsy.
Three quick and easy Doctor Who Halloween costumes
What am I saying? These aren’t Doctor Who Halloween costumes. These Doctor Who t-shirts are everyday wear. I’ve a pal who wears something similar (these are new, pre-order only at the minute) and he makes it look good; he’s tall and thin, though, the bugger. I’m short and plump. Not so sure they’d work for […]
File as cute: Wampa!
Once again we find that the Wampa is not the murderous beast that some people claim it is. Think back to this cute baby wampa or this rare wampa rug for previous examples. Okay, the rug is a little scary; and the slave Leia provoked some debates too. Anyway, lets pop over to Etsy and […]
