So I just made one of the most daring decisions of my life today. I decided to quit my very good job as a Sony Product Trainer so I can travel around the world. I have no set agenda, just an idea of the countries I want to visit. My unrelenting desire to walk the world without a care or solid direction has finally been bequeathed upon me. From where? I do not know, but I am certain that this has

Yay, it's Christmas time again and all the stores are filled with random zombie shoppers. In my line of work (paid, business type, real job stuff) I have to deal with retail staff on a daily basis. My job as a Sony Product Specialist/Trainer means I have to try and push the Sony propaganda down the throats of everyday, living, breathing, lamenting, struggling retailers.Right now my job is so

So I've been enjoying this guy's (Ronald Jenkees) music on YouTube for some time and I think he really needs to be congratulated on his determination and effort. Through unlikely odds, he has been inspiring people all over the world to be happy doing what they do and to be humbled in doing so. His constant reminders of what makes us happy and how we should be, make him so lovable. His music is

This device looks so awesome, I am actually glad that it isn't quite available, otherwise I would have ordered one in a moment of weak compulsion.The AR.Drone from Parrot is a four blade helicopter (aka; Quadricopter) that is controlled via your iPhone using their iPhone app. The device has two cameras mounted facing forward and down and the user can switch between the two at will, by the touch

Found thanks to Creaturism:http://creaturism.blogspot.comSo these dudes created this graffiti progect that I thought was amazing. I was curious because my buddie Luke pointed out (indirectly) that yes, it was just a bunny... however, you must look again.That's when I went "oh right".Kinda reminds me of Banksy work. Who in my opinion is the best street artist around.

This is the new TVC from Libra Invisible Pads. Well done Libra for finally making a women's health product commercial that is so funny. I noticed that a lot of women and men comment on how good the ad is in some of the YouTube postings. So obviously the TVC is a hit. I love it!

After reading my earlier posts on the preseason testing, I noticed that I have been missing out a couple of factors I think are going to make a big difference this coming season, as far as how I think the drivers and teams will perform. Most notably is the new rule forbidding refueling during the race. This is important for a number of reasons. Firstly, it means that the only real advantage teams

I found these small lamps from a creative blog the other day and I thought they were pretty cool. The artist who designed them has an obsession with light, as found through a number of his works. His name is Adam Frank and works out of Brooklyn, NY.The lamps are from his Lumen range and are made of fine brushed aluminium and run from a clean-burning, 17-hr liquid candle. When placed by a wall or

Well, Hamilton seems to have returned to good form of late and is showing the field a new strength in his shiny MP4-25. Leading the pack on the final day of preseason testing showed us he's back. However we must also pay close attention to our boy Webber! Coming in with the second fasted lap time with only 61 laps under his belt, the man is a force to be reckoned with. He has consistently been

This is a video I found from Bonnier R&D showing one design concept for a handheld digital magazine, that could be made possible in the near future. The video explores all the characteristics of a magazine reading experience and translates those aspects into a format that works seamlessly on a touch pad style tablet.Just watching the video makes me want to buy one. The design concept is

I really dug the Tunnel Jewelry Hearing Aids from my earlier blog. The idea of taking medicinal, cyborg components and utilizing fashionable platforms for implementation, is a major step forward in the practical application of modern cybernetics.I found these from the same site I found the Tunnel Jewelry Hearing Aids from Tuvie.com. The two blogs read similar but remarkably, differ genre and

Last Thursday, Mark Webber came out and topped the times during testing currently being held in Barcelona this week. On a day that saw more red flags come out during testing this season, Mark remained on top with a time of 1:21.487 and appeared to have had the most successful performance of the day, completing 109 laps.Though this success would be overshadowed today by a huge effort from the

Fuck yeah! I'd use one.I think this is a great idea to tackle the issues encountered during delayed flights, long gaps between transit or simply an economic solution to one night stop-overs in towns or cities between destinations, when travellers are usually bereft of a place to crash.These are the sorts of ideas that will inevitably revolutionise the way humans will operate in the future.

I recently bought a t-shirt called "Bat Face" from a friend of mine and I think it's fucking awesome.He makes really cool art under the banner "Creaturism".I first met him through work and found him to be a valuable source of comedy in the workplace. He has an unbelievable knack for saying the most hilarious things without thinking about them, or their consequences first. Usually strange

My neighbor just popped his head through my window (as he does) waving a small green packet about, with his kiddish grin smeared ear to ear. It was a Green Tea flavored Kit-Kat. He had ordered a box of them from Japan and insisted that I try one.Well, it sure looked good as it was flailing about in front of me but the kicker was when he told me that the chocolate covering was actually GREEN!

I was in Myer the other day in the computer department, when I noticed their computer terminal. It was like looking into the past man! This old green screen DOS based piece of shit is what the staff have to use to search through stock lists and find prices and stuff like that. I couldn't believe it! A computer department with a relic of a machine!Myer, you fail...

Got my new Sony bloggie yesterday.It's their new FullHD 1080 video recorder for only $299.Plus it has a cool 360degree lens attachment.It lets you record a full 360degrees of footage in this dome looking style, then the software it comes with lets you unroll the footage to look like a huge panoramic view of everything that's around you.

So I stumbled on to this guy the other day called Johnny Chung Lee. He has been able to hack a Wiimote to be able to emulate a VR 3D experience on any computer or TV, by simple making up a headset for like, $20 and running his software.He hopes that some game designers catch on and start making games that can use this kind of thing. The cool thing about this kit is that you don't need any
