Shutdown Day is just is not going to happen for me I hate to say because GTA4 is out April 29th and that Xbox is going to be burning it’s little heart out.

It’s a great idea, a bit like Googles’ “Lights out” hour they did recently where they turned the background to black on the search engine page, but I’m just one of those people who could live without a computer easily but given the gun wielding madman opportunity… well, it’s just not going to happen.

Incidentally I rarely use the PC/laptop on the weekend so when this is happening I guess that counts right?

I think this comes down to one thing: is an Xbox a computer. If not, then I’m in.

“New Design!, Handsome Appearance, Top-Quality”

Me and a mate digitalgravy from work decided to buy a couple of ‘infrared combat tanks’ for a bit of lunch break desktop world warfar (LBDWW for short?).

Cutting a short story shorter I went for the cheap option on eBay. “OMFG” cheap from a ebayer called hobby*planet. Heres the listing.

This has to have some of the funniest badly translated Chinese I’ve ever had the misfortune of reading on a toy (or high quality model if you believe the listing). (more…)

I bet a million people have seen this but Greg Martin’s Illustration, Photography and Photoshop work is just stunning and the website just holds the same feeling.

I’m not one for flash websites, in fact I pretty much disliked all of them that I have found so far, however this is just ‘right’. It does not make you feel like you’re using an application (which most flash sites make me feel like) and it is relatively easy to navigate.

I am currently working very hard to master WordPress and all that is has to offer.

Keeping everything valid has been one of my main tasks but weeding out those odd closing divs here and there has not been an easy task. However, everything seems to be going well so far and with a little luck/determination/ignoring the xbox I should get things up and running!

Please don’t mind the mess and give me a shout if you spot anything broken or odd. Things will be changing over the next few weeks so bare with me!
