Alien Swarm - Valve Games

Alien Swarm – Now Free!

Team co-op games have always been fun and in the past few years there have been a good few “greats.” Borderlands and the Left 4 Dead series are perfect examples of this. These 4 player co-op games go against the forces of whatever, with plenty of guns and a large amount of either blood or goo. Frankly, it’s good for the soul. Valve is a company that likes to spot potential and then devour it.  Most of the Valve catalog was created or thought up by the Half life ...

What Can You Do With A Bic Biro?

Well I can’t really credit myself with even being able to write very well. I have terrible handwriting, the keyboard is my friend. I do remember doodling with my Bic though, in school – and found out things like it was really nice  and smooth to write on those polystyrene cups. Anyway, the Bic Biro is a tool of writing and perhaps line drawing, but what about fine art?  Juan Francisco is an artist who has taken this his Bic to the next level, well probably a few ...

Chrome Logo

Google Chrome – Extensions

The hardest leap from Firefox to Chrome for me was the lack of important extensions that made browsing a lot easier.   I will always use Firefox for development as loosing Firebug would be unthinkable, but as Firefox seems to have been going through a little speed slump recently I started to do all my browsing in Chrome. Chrome has come along way since its release, and now has started fully supporting extensions in its latest beta release.  Surprisingly there are already hundreds of extensions, most importantly notifications for Wave and Gmail with ...

Opera Mobile 10 Beta 2

The Symbian Opera

These days browsers are big talk for those who use the web like some kind of drug deprived addict.  People build up a passionate loyalty to their browser of choice, whatever it may be. As the web becomes more and more mobile and phones are designed to handle the internet in competitive and interactively rich ways, you would think that more developers would be starting to make version of their software for the new generation of mobile devices. We all know that iPhone have an app for everything and Android phones ...

Chromium

Wave at Google Chrome OS

Yes Google are trying to take over the world, trying to deny it is futile – we will be assimilated. Google aren’t really helping dispel the image conspiracy theorists are projecting.   With the wide scale Wave beta that is happening at the moment comes the release of some more information about the Chrome OS. Google are showing of the user experience which I must say is designed excellently for a netbook, and its only a prototype… So will you surrender, or are you going to fight the power? Google ...

Master of Defense

Indie Game: Master of Defence

I love these defence games, they are a lot of fun.  You have to build up your defences to save your people from the constant hordes of monsters. There are many games like this around, but not too many that looks so well or have such an interesting way of presenting the idea. The indie game was developed by Voodoo Dimention and there is an excellent download available on the games website, linked below.  The game has won a good few awards too so give it a go, ...

Curdbee - Invoicing for the people!

Invoicing with Curdbee

I have been using Curdbee for a good few months now and I think its about time I gave them some love.  There are many invoice managing programmes  - online and offline that are around, but I have not found one that offers a simple but complete invoicing management service for free. Curdbee does this, they enable you to set up and customise your invoices, hold them as drafts, send them and tell you when they are viewed and enable you to break them down into many items and descriptions. Curdbee’s basic ...

Taking the Next Step with Twitter.

Twitter has brought together people, co-workers and communities. Alliances in work, beliefs, causes have raised awareness and money and given people opportunities in working globally with great people on awesome projects.  For the most its just been a great way to meet new friends.  But twitter has its limits, and sometimes 140 chars just doesn’t do it. So the next step, you might be thinking is some crazy twitter service or some extensions that triples your message capacity, well although they might be something somewhere I am talking more about ...

VRC - www.virtualrc.com

More RC fun – but on your PC!

Yes the whole remote controlled idea is coming back again and again.  Now the World RC Car Racing community is pretty big, they have their own events and prizes just like any other group of enthusiastic individuals.   But on those lonely nights between Race seasons or waiting for the weekends, what do they do?  Race RC cars on their PCs of course! I found VRC a few years ago, I think it was just starting out – but now it is very well established within the racing ...

Viscosity

Fluids, Viscosity and You!

I’m a bit of a science lover myself, its all awesome.  But not only is it awesome but it is beautiful and intriguing. Viscosity is a measure of the resistance of a fluid which is being deformed by either shear stress or extensional stress. One of the most incredible and beautiful things is simple Viscosity!  Take a look at the cool videos below and be inspired,  I know I am.
