i've got an idea .com

During one of those geeky sessions were people get together and chat some one mentioned the word “Interslice” and “Cutco”, these words sounded familiar. I remembered it was from an episode of Simpsons; Das Bus to be exact. Anyway Homer is trying to set up a new internet company that is catchy. The name Interslice is catchy, so catchy that I can’t shift it so I thought about having a look into the...

It's all in the detail

I’ve not been about much, the new theme has been put on hold, Lucy wonders where I am going and what happened to me. The answer is Ghost Recon. This game is just about as good as it gets for the new 360. Finally a game that makes you feel like ‘next gen’. We were playing a bit of defend last night when I noticed that the empty shells from my MG21 were ejecting from the gun, hitting the wall,...

G.R.A.W

Ok Play.com lets be friends again, let’s put behind us the fact that you took three months to post me a hard drive and a headset for my 360; loosing one headset in the process. Let’s not dwell on this especially when you dropped off a copy of Ghost Recon 3 this morning. Since Dan first introduced me to the Tom Clancy range of Ghost Recon game’s I’ve been pretty much hooked. I first tried the game...

Phone Update

To say I was not impressed by Sony Ericsson’s service was a bit of an understatement so I decided to try and sort my phone out myself. After a quick google I found out that the people in the know are the DaVinciTeam who specialise in SE mods and firmware updates. A bit researching I found that using the standard USB cable and the DaVinci client software I can re-flash my phone; hopefully into a...

veedub unpimped

I know this has been mentioned once already if not before but when Sean popped into the office this morning I spoke about these adverts from VW. He had not seen them so I said I would post a link for him to find quickly, well he is a welder by...

SE can kiss my ass!

I’ve been a user of Sony Ericsson phones for many years now, I just love the UI and the features. My current phone a D750i has been a lovely little machine, but recently it has been failing to see the memory card, a pain when you want to take a picture and you have to restart the phone to get it to reconise the Duo stick. The phone also features a handy little service where you can update the...

New Marketplace Items

There have been a couple of additions to the Xbox Live marketplace in the last 24 hours. Most noticable is the downloadable demo of The Outfit. This is a full online demo of a single level in the game. Second up is the trailers for Battlefield2: Modern Combat. Finally there are a few updates to titles on the way, Madden being one of...

My next bike

I spent most of the afternoon in Rob’s shop the other day, well I was bored, and whilst I walked around I found my next bike. It was a Electra Ghost Rider, a slung back cruiser. Normally I would pass this off as a no point machine but I just could not pass up a test ride. Within 10 meters you could not help it, I fell in love with the bike. Even pedaling just created a smooth motion that was just...

geek it up

I was hoping for a nice quiet day at work; following up some leads and looking into some more asbestos rules and regulations, however a phone call from OZ meant I’m spending the day coding the company web metadata. Just what I need after spending my spare working this metadata. I need a break, I just nested a div tag within an a tag; what was I...
