Earth, the little blue dot

NASA captured this amazing image of our blue planet from Saturn with its Cassini spacecraft.

In this rare image taken on July 19, 2013, the wide-angle camera on NASA's Cassini spacecraft has captured Saturn's rings and our planet Earth and its moon in the same frame. It is only one footprint in a mosaic of 33 footprints covering the entire Saturn ring system (including Saturn itself).  At each footprint, images were taken in different spectral filters for a total of 323 images: some were taken for scientific purposes and some to produce a natural colour mosaic.  This is the only wide-angle footprint that has the Earth-moon system in it.

Mean Tweets

We've all done this. I mean, I haven't, of course, but most people have... If you have a Twitter account, there's a good chance you've mentioned some celebrity in a Tweet and was pretty mean about them. Jimmy Kimmel got celebs to read out some nasty tweets about them. Really good stuff. Featuring: Bieb, Gomez, Biel, Alba, Ferrel, Borat, etc.

Newt = Git

Here's a sure fire way to get your YouTube video to instantly become the most watched thing in history. Take one really, really stupid American politician. Make him ask one of history's dumbest questions to camera: "Why do we call it a cell phone if phones today can do so many more things than calling?"

I really don't want to help promote this idiot's blabberings but this really is something you have to see to believe...

Bottle rockets with 100 wM Krypton laser

I've promised myself never to buy one of these Wicked Lasers because I know I'll get up to no good with them. Nevertheless, YouTube is there to help and you can live the "no good" living through others having a great time. That's it! I'm going to order my own now. It's called "Krypton" after all!

Apple is so predictable a cider company can do it

I wonder how long before Apple wises up and demands for this ad to be pulled and the YouTube video taken off line. In the meantime, here's how Somersby Cider company is taking a real piss (incidentally that's what I think of ciders) out of Apple.

Captain Kirk vs. Gorn - The Rematch

Last month, the universe's greatest starship captain, William Shatner, turned 82. To promote the upcoming, and dare I say rather ugly looking Star Trek game, Bill took on an equally aged Gorn in a rematch. It's a pretty good laugh especially if you're a Star Trek fan. Seriously, the game scenes look really crap. I hope the upcoming movie won't resemble the game in any way...

Is that you Lara Croft?

Can't believe it's the same person from the earliest iteration of Ms Croft in 1996 (Good Lord... has it been that long since the first game?) through to what seems to be one of those very popular things to do these days, a reboot, for 2013.

Work life balance in 2013

For some reason, I think this fairly accurately describes a heck of a lot of people these days. I'd say thanks to Mr Jobs but then I remember whenever my glass covered iPhone or iPad smashes into my face when I nod off... Hoping for the day when I won't have a broken nose every time I fall asleep reading boring rubbish online.
