Sucking hell.
A banner with a real function is always welcome to 'try' and take my attention, This one from Vax actually spring cleans your computer! I spent a few minutes replaying this in the hope that I could get rid of some of the unwanted files from my Mac, unfortunately it's still running like Stephen Hawkins doing the 200m hurdles... headache.
Try for yourself... HERE.

A point has been made which I agree on...
3D movies are (at the moment) a fucking eyesore. There, I said it.
All this media hype and hiked up prices... I have now got a headache and an empty pocket (though I did steal your glasses for the fancy dress party next week, the cherry on the top of my 'Dog the Bounty Hunter' outfit. Thanks IMAX). I cant ever see the whole screen at once as the edges of the screen are blurry and these afore mentioned glasses dig in to the bridge of my nose creating sore red dents when I take them off, making me look like a crackhead.
I was chatting to friend about this a couple of days ago and came to the conclusion that it's main benefit is to stop piracy... at the cost of all our retinas, and I price my retinas very highly...
...did like Avatar though...

Moving...
An beautifully emotional set of photos taken by Photographer Phillip Toledano of his Father (who has no short-term memory) after his mother passed away and how he coped with him during this time...

Thanks to the great Gyana Bindo for forwarding this one on to me!
Remember folks, you can send me links/gadgets/inspirations/concepts and I might just post them for all to see, giving you one of the smallest doses of fame that can possibly be achieved... it's on me...

Don't see red, see £££'s.
yep, there even an app for that...
This one refunds your tube ticket price when its delayed.
If you want the full story... click.
Does this mean I can cruise the city looking for delays and make some cash? hmm..
Don't see red, see £££'s...
Decode... finally!
Been wanting to get to this exhibition for quite a time now, yesterday my grateful retinas were at last caressed by the digital fingertips of the Decode exhibit at the V&A. There is some really awesome pieces there and some great stuff to interact with also which makes it a bit more fun. My fave being the painting one, kinda makes you deel like a kid throwing powder paints again.
Now, i'm purposly not going to put any videos up as half the fun of this place is waving your arms about infront of things which arent even interactive...
though i'l include a link for the inquisitive kids...

On the way home we met a lady that was intrigued by my friends camera (and his ring actually) who proceeded to talk to us about other exhibits around london for a few stops. Then she decided to get off at Mansion House for no reason more than to have a look... nice attitude lady.
Then I went to have a meeting with the Creative Director of 'Albion', drew a hand on a blackboard and ate a pizza. Fin.

Great Facebook status:
"Do I have something smarter to wear for Sunday lunch!?? Hell no motha fuck!! When you employ me you get a stone cold G who looks totally fresh as standard, at £6.30 an hour that's a bargain. Some people."
Cute, not seedy in the slightest ad for Match.com...
...I'd like to see a more true representation of internet dating done. The awkward turndowns, creepy stalkers, disfigurements...
First signs of interactive cinema...
i think i'd have to be there to really give a true opinion on this but I love the idea of interacting with films...

Explanation of the '*' in last post... so don't expect anything to clever...
Most of the internerds of you out there will have seen this guy destroying items in his mega-blender before...

I stumbled upon the upgrade of this set of videos today... 'Watch it Shred'. A far more confident title and once you see the machine he's using you will see why there is no question mark in the heading... i'd like to see that white haired chap blend a BMW or a torpedo...
http://www.ssiworld.com/watch/watch-en.htm
These videos genuinely scare me...

Music, birds and sand. sounds like Ibiza but infact isn't...
Went to see the CĂ©leste Boursier-Mougenot exhibition at the Curve gallery in the Barbican yesterday. For those who have no idea what i'm talking about, it's basically birds playing guitars. I went there thinking I was going to see one guitar in a glass box with a few birds in but was pleasantly surprised to find the entire curve gallery dedicated to an immersive walk-thru experience. surrounded by different instruments rigged up to speakers and a large flock of zebra finches (no, i had no idea before going there either but I can exclusively reveal that they are lovely little birds, kind of like little flying hamsters in the way they act (inquisitive/friendly/squeaky). Always nice getting a close look at animals, especially when they are shredding like Hendrix presenting 'Will it Blend' *...
Theres a great atmosphere in there, I advise a day visit if possible, it gets busy after 6pm...

OK Go music video... it's had nearly a million views in 2 days, I defy you not to watch this...
I have a supreme fascination with Rube Goldberg videos (starting with the infamous Honda ad) and as good ones are not created very often (due to the extreme complexity and magnitude of things that can go wrong) I was excited to check this one out... it's phenomenal... isn't channel 4 doing a best music vid ever thing soon? This little ditty (thanks Matt) should definitely get in the runnings if there's any justice in the world (thanks Lemar)...
Follow up post: since the initial post of this story the views (847,000) have DOUBLED, surpassing the success of their previous video (the one on treadmills). This is a band that really knows the true power of the viral. Hmmm... I want me some of that...
