How very bizarre… a big Lego bloke has washed ashore in Zandvoort, Holland. Slightly more bizarre is the reporters’ decision to liken it to the Trojan Horse story. Odd. [via Andrew Tatham]
This is really very good indeed. (Will open a new window…) He’s summed up ITV‘s Formula One coverage perfectly. There’s 22 drivers on the grid in F1 this year, not that you’d know it if you listened to James Allen. That man… that clearly unbiased man. (You know, the one who called his son Enzo […]
Have you ever wondered how much of the human body is totally useless? No, well maybe this link might perk your interest up a bit. It’s clearly American, but apart from their size and stupidity, are they really that different from us?! That’s a joke by the way… [link from Adam]
How excellent is Bill Bailey? For those of you saying/thinking, “Actually, not very,” go and get a brick to hit yourself over the head with, or even better a compass… then watch this clip. It’s his love song… a slice of brilliance. Clearly a genius. Sensible now? Right, Bill Bailey has announced he’s going to […]

Last.fm have been doing some great things recently… in fact they have for a long time. I’ve been using them since 25th July 2005 after all! As I’ve written about before (although I can’t find the exact post to link to, so maybe I’ve imagined it), they log what you listen to in a range […]
This is somthing I owned for quite a few years before actually being able to hear it. It’s on a mysterious format known as vinyl… and my dad’s old turntable had long since bitten the dust. But then I was bought a USB turntable to help convert vinyl into MP3s and one bored Sunday afternoon, […]
Every so often I write an entry here about how I’ll post more often. Or how I’m sorry I haven’t been posting more often. And to be honest, my time gets squeezed so much when I’m working that I just don’t have chance to write for here or any of my sites. So… it’s the […]
I know it’s rare for me to post three times in a day… but I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to post this. Possibly because of the OK Go mania over their dance videos. This one’s less well known but still amazing. It uses some high frame rate footage of stuff being […]
The third in my semi regular series, everything looks better in slow motion, brings us a compilation effort of various other clips. The music’s not really my taste, I’d recommend watching it without the sound – it’s just as good! Shown are: a cigarette lighter (number 1), a man with water in his mouth being […]
Entries like this are relatively difficult to write (and, for that matter, to categorise) and so forgive me for the stream of consciousness nature of it. Websites such as YouTube have come under fire recently for not doing enough to discourage cyber-bullies [BBC News]. Meanwhile, Tim O’Reilly, author of a number of computer based books, […]
