I’m now a big fan of John Kenn. The Danish born talent writes and directs TV shows for kids. He’s clearly got an incredibly creative mind. Working in media and with twins he’s a bit pushed for time… as you might imagine. However, when he finds a spare minute or so, he draws monsters on […]
Happy Towel Day with pictures! #towelday
Today is Towel Day. This is a yearly celebration and tribute to the legend Douglas Adams. Today you should, as the wise one advised, carry a towel with you. You should tweet with #towelday as a hashtag. You should upload a picture to Flickr and tag it “towelday” and if you want you can even […]
The Physics Of My Little Pony
Are you a fan of My Little Pony? I don’t mean the geeky modded My Little Ponies like Pony Stark. I mean the core My Little Pony franchise. I’ve some bad news for you. It turns out that the cartoons aren’t very accurate. In fact, the physics of the My Little Pony world are laden […]
Predator pumpkin
I know it’s not pumpkin carving season but this Predator is too good to file away and save for later. Um. I think that’s a pumpkin. Is that a pumpkin?

Veebeam offers easier streaming
When I can get my hands on legal anime downloads – you know, those teaser clips, trailers, featurettes or even sometimes fan made movies – I often like to stream them from my deskbound laptop to my large HD TV. Makes for a better watching experience, right? I think I’ve got a pretty good set […]

RC Superhero with VTL
I’ve flown a kite but never was bitten by the RC bug. It seemed like an expensive and awkward hobby. I live in Scotland in a city surrounded by hills. It would be a challenge to wait for good flying conditions and then a battle not to crash the expensive little helicopter model into the […]
Stunning Lego Pegasus actually moves
This Lego sculpture is impressive. It isn’t that the design is elegant and graceful; full of curves, which is very hard to do with Lego. It’s that the whole model moves, just as gracefully, with the turn of the handle on its pedestal. This beauty was built by Edulyoung who notes that the model makes […]
