Ok. I’m on holiday in France. I have taken my camera body and my 3 best (and only) lenses with me. I came out with the best intentions of trying to get some really nice snaps at the beach or on a night out. Reality is somewhat different though. I haven’t taken the camera out once. Is it because I’m scared of getting my lenses stolen? Not really. The thing which gets me is that I have to take my camera bag with me. That can weigh 5kg on the best of days. Its not the best for moving fast or running around with – that’s for sure!

I would say bring back the old day’s but I’m 19 and have only lived long enough to survive a couple of british karaoke nights. I miss the action and I’m tempted to say I miss the atmosphere. But the atmosphere is OK. It’s just the embarrassing singers I miss I guess.
*** it costs 1.50Euro for a glass of wine. 4.50Eur for a Stella. you do the maths

While cleaning out my office, I unearthed a treasurechest of ancient floppy disks.
Do you remember the days when data security meant keeping your floppy disks in a locked box? Its easy to brute-force your way in if you’ve got a brick.
Take a look at what I found

OnLive. First thoughts
OnLive is announced to reach the UK on 22nd September 2011. Although, outright, I can’t say that I’d advocate it, I will more than certainly be one of the first to play it
So. I remember about 2 years ago, when I first heard of OnLive; my heart sank, thinking this would be another blow for the gaming industry. I thought the idea was very novel, very unique and definitely a leap forwards in terms of technology, but a big step back in terms of gaming experience.
