I’m liking Terminator: the Sarah Connor Chronicles. Especially Cameron the friendly Terminator – “I’m a bitch whore”. After the dreadfulness of T3, nice to see a return to form even without Arnie. Some good community content on that site too to extend the experience. However, Flash Gordon on Sci Fi is just shit. I evenContinueContinue reading “a round up of sci-fi stuff”

visualisations and digital map mash ups
Regular readers will know I love a good graphic so I thought I’d share the above as a cool example of displaying data trends, this example being for US box office. Originally found on Boing Boing. And this web trend map from Tokyo found on Nicola Davies’ blog. Go there where you can find aContinueContinue reading “visualisations and digital map mash ups”
duran duran 2.0 2.0
Re-mix Duran Duran’s latest tune. Tie in with Apple Garage Band. Not got an apple? Er, never mind. You can still watch Simon Le Bon’s ever so creepy 12 second promo video on the site. Quite similar to some very good remixes that fans of David Bowie did last year or the year before. InterestinglyContinueContinue reading “duran duran 2.0 2.0”

A third of American men don’t wash their hands & 12% of women don’t either. Ewww. That’s disgusting. And that’s how germs are spread. Just ask the NHS! Quote from the Guardian: Guys need to step up to the sink It’s not that hard is it? I found the image on Flickr and the photographer’sContinueContinue reading “stuff and things 19.09.07”

Only a few things today as I’ve been on a couple days hols (more on this when I get chance) and am now officially pitch bitch for the rest of this week. Flood 2.0. With the UK drowning through unseasonably high water fall of late, here’s a mash up of Google maps with news reportsContinueContinue reading “stuff and things 08.08.07”

Logo a-go-go! After the fiasco of that logo, comes more news that the banking institution known as Barclays is highly likely to change their logo for fear of offending the Dutch if the proposed merger with ABN Amro takes place. While the logo causes less visual intolerance than the 2012 thing, it does strike aContinueContinue reading “stuff and things 19.06.07”

I want one of these. The guy who created it is a finalist on the ITV series, Tycoon. And my wife works with someone who’s selling them. And it’s in my lounge! But it needs batteries and I don’t have any. The excitement level is huge. The key question is: can I adapt it toContinueContinue reading “stuff and things 13.06.07”

This mash up is just too addictive. Here’s two more. Boom! Wise words
spam the monkey | episode 3
This time Spam must make a choice: will he turn to the dark side? See the mash up video here. Created using the new mash up tool on the updated Star Wars site. Hours of fun. Previously on Spam the Monkey: episode 1, episode 2
