Sony Ericsson have been engaged in a bit of colourful online PR. They’ve taken the rainbow of fun hoppers featured in one of their TV ads and combined with that Twitter and video cameras. If your tweet contains the hashtag #pumpt then, for you, they’ll puff a bit of air into a deflated hopper. At […]

Galaxies forming along filaments – Tomas Saraceno
From the fine artistic mind of Tomas Saraceno we’ve this sculpture of elastic rope and void. Does this remind you of droplets of rain forming along spiderweb strands of silk? You can see more of Saraceno’s work over at the Tanya Bonakdar Gallery.
Geek gang signs
This image comes to us via My [confined] Space which means we don’t actually no where it was before that. It’s a sly idea – but some of these signs look a little complex to me! It is over sensitive to discuss whether the geek drawn here should have been black or not? There are […]
EVE Online: Dominion
Eve Online’s Dominion is a free expansion due out on December 1st this year… yup; in just a few days. Eve’s die hard fans, addicts one and all, will be chewing their fingernails until the 1st. Then we won’t seem them away from their screen until Christmas. Good luck everyone!
Awesome Aion trailer
Aion’s certainly causing a bit of a stir in some quarters. I think this trailer goes a long way in showing why – the planet looks awesome, the graphics clever and far more engaging than traditional MMORGS. What do you think? Could Aion lure you away from WOW to lure you into the multi-player online […]
Pay Pie! – Tech for splitting the bill
Pay Pie is my term for this wonderful device. I think it fits. Have you ever had to battle with fair and effective ways to split the bill? I have. Sometimes its easier just to pay the bill yourself than go through the drama of coping with cash, cards and IOUs! Thanks to Geeky Gadgets […]
New World of Warcraft ad – just annoying?
I was sitting in a room of WoW players when I asked about the latest ad campaign. “Have you seen it?” I asked, “Seen it? I’m living it,” came one reply. Check out the video yourself but be aware that this is actually happening in game. As another WoWer said; this is an odd move […]
Rabbids in panties
Rabbids Lab sounded like a fun game – your own virtual Rabbid living in your wiimote. A rabbid which you could dress up and customise. I’m not sure this promotional video does the wiiware game any favours though. It just looks a bit… lacking. There doesn’t seem to be all that many options for your […]
Lego in Matrix time
Lego is awesome. The Matrix is awesome. What you get when you put the two together you get… awesome. Yeah. This is very clever set of animation that makes full use of all that awesome in order to re-create one of the best scenes in the movie. Dodge this.
The Muppets perform Bohemian Rhapsody
Unless you’ve been living under and offline rock this month you’ll have come across this sterling performance of Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody from the comic master Muppets. That’s no reason not to share the video here; after all, we have next month to think about when we might need to be reminded that Animal is fantastic […]
