Lookit, lookit! Pictures of new mazes for Pac-Man World Championship on Xbox 360 Live
We wouldn’t normally devote so much time and energy (ok, minutes that could be best used reading about Larry David splitting with his wife, and googling whether he likes brunette technology bloggers or not) to writing about the Pac-Man World Championship game which became available on Xbox 360’s Live Arcade this morn, but frankly…
Chomp chomp chomp: Pac-Man Championship Edition coming to Xbox Live Arcade
That rumour I hinted at earlier today regarding Microsoft and Pac-Man? Just two minutes ago it was announced that together Microsoft and Namco Bandai…
Daily Tech Hotlinks for 05-May-2007: Mobile phones, Pac-Man, Microsoft, 24, Japan
– Us Brits are a wasteful bunch, with 855,000 mobile phones being dropped into the toilet each year. Yes, our tariff plans really are shit.
– Today in NYC at the Pac-Man World Championships, Microsoft are due to announce something ‘big’ and ‘Pac-Man-related’. Probably a 360 Live remake or something, sigh.
– The average Brit…
Hey lecher, lay your wrist between a pair of boobies at work with these mouse-pads
A silly one to start the day off with, I can imagine these mouse-pads which have real silicone implants attached to the jubblie or bum bits would go down a treat for a gag-gift for a workmate. Probably in Zoo, Nuts, or Loaded magazine’s offices. Certainly not in our Shiny Towers, where most of us are women and most of my colleagues…
Moblogging puts everyone in a foul mood for the upcoming 2012 London Olympics
Our pink-laden sister in the know, Shiny Shiny, has let it slip that this is the official logo for the 2012 London Olympics. Oh. My. Goodness. I can’t decide whether it reminds me of the costume I wore to a bad ’80s party recently, or, as a commenter on Shiny Shiny stated, (which I can’t not think about when I look at the logo), Lisa Simpson performing fellatio…
Poll results for last week's Microsoft Surface question
The results are in, the ballots have been counted, and we can now confirm that…drumroll, please…49% of our readers cannot wait to get their grubby little paws on one of this year’s hottest announcements in the technology world, Microsoft’s Surface.
A further 15% of you weren’t that interested in it, with 13% liking the concept, but only for commercial use, and another…
Apple's iPhone adverts debuted last night on CBS, see them here!
I promise this’ll be the last mention of Apple on this here blog – to think, I call myself a worshipper at the temple of Gates! However I couldn’t not show you the three ads for iPhone which debuted yesterday during CBS’s 60 Minutes in the US, which Andy mentioned earlier. This first one is titled ‘Never Been An iPod’, with the second and third below the jump. Enjoy…you’ve only got 25 days left of jonesing. But remember folks – don’t go buying it at an Apple store now, you hear us? Rather, hear Mr. Jobs?…
To add or not to add, that is the question – the politics of friendships on Facebook
Katherine Hannaford writes…
Love it or loathe it, Facebook is the new MySpace…oh, and the new Twitter, the new Flickr and pretty much every other work-shirker time-waster known to man, thanks to opening themselves up to third-party developers.
But how much is too much? Is there such a thing as being too involved in the social-networking service? And just how many friends is acceptable – is there a stigma attached to Facebook in the same manner as with MySpace, where those with fewer than 10 friends are deemed social pariahs?
Just how much is too much?
US online retailers starting to stock Samsung's Q1 Ultra Mobile PC, the Q1U-V
We’ve completely exhausted the topic of Samsung’s Q1 Ultra Mobile PC (originally dubbed the Origami), since we first announced it back in March 2006, with more than enough articles regarding the specs and even several video reviews from CeBIT this year.
So, I’ll keep this brief and say that it’s now officially launched, with the first units being made available in the US on online retailers’ sites, such as Buy.com, Costco and Provantage. Any of our US readers who want to plonk down…
