A fish, sea monkeys or a cat?

I’ve just had an argument on the phone with an O2 customer service agent. After some confusion I now needed to change the password on my account, this couldn’t be done without knowing the answer to my secret answer. CORRECTION the secret answer and the question which relates to that answer, I needed to know […]

Annoyance

My iPhone is docked and I’m playing music through iTunes (music that is located on my iPhone). Music is playing loudly, someone phones my iPhone, how should the phone react? Currently the phone rings, but I can’t hear it because of iTunes playing songs off my iPhone, so I miss the call (this has happened […]

A Tesco Failure

Ok, you shop online right? How long would you reasonably wait for an item to be delivered from a well known supermarket, 3 to 14 days sounds quite rational. How about one month? That would be pushing it right, well you haven’t heard nothing yet.

Anyway here is a short fabulous clip, let me fill you in the on the details, Larry wants […]

A desktop top touch

Ok people listen up, I’m going to make a bold comment.
Well it isn’t that bold but here goes…
The mouse and keyboard will be dead in 10-15 years, its successor will be touch desktops and touch laptops.

So put those input devices down and get ready to flex your fingers, I wouldn’t be surprised […]

Vista Update

I can hardly wait until today. That’s when Microsoft will release an update “that extends laptop battery life, improves the stability of wireless network connections, shortens recovery time after exiting hibernation or sleep, and deals with compatibility problems with some anti-virus software.”
Although I never had a problem with battery life, my current remaining time stands […]

Fed up with Facebook? Fear not. There is a new website in town perfect for whiling away those long hours. Better still, you can brush up on your vocabulary while helping to feed the world’s poor. Or so Freerice.com promises.
There’s no reason why sites like this shouldn’t work, although you can’t stop and think that […]
