Everyone gets spam, its like a law of the universe or something. But when you think back, we always got spam. Way before the invention of e-mail, we were (and still are) getting inundated with leaflets, pamphlets, print adverts, TV commercials, radio spots and informercials until we could virtually memorise them. Trust me, if I [...]

Sprinklers can be great fun, we all know that. Kids love to dance around in them when the weather is hot, dogs love to play chicken with them and they keep your lawn all nice and lush. However, they are the mortal enemy of the water board who impose hosepipe bans as a mere cover [...]

Security cameras are everywhere these days. Can’t even walk down the street without having about 3 of them watching you at all times. However, they do have their uses – like catching hilarious moments on tape for people like us to laugh at. This first video shows how winding someone up by throwing stuff at [...]

You may well have seen this before, but it doesn’t stop it from being awesome. People with expensive houses are always looking for good intruder alarm systems these days, and cars are no different. In this case, the jumbo marshmallow toaster you see attached to the bottom of this BMW is a feature you can [...]

Bet you never thought you’d see that as a topic, eh? Well, now you have. More to the point, there is a whole lot of fun you can have with vehicle tracking systems. Take this guy for instance: he put together quite possibly the world’s largest delivery order, intended for a case containing a GPS [...]

Everyone loves police car chases. The fact that there are about a thousand different TV shows around the world showing nothing but police car chases is testament to this. In fact, the only people who don’t like police chases are the ones being chased, and even then it is only if they get caught in [...]

Raska Holdings are a company in Serbia which have fallen on extremely hard times since the fall of Yugoslavia in the 1990s. So hard in fact that they can’t actually afford to pay their workers. Like, ever. So while these guys have been existing off state benefits and so on, some have been protesting. How [...]

It isn’t that often that a video blows me away with its sheer awesomeness, but this one certainly did. I don’t know whether it is the setting, the amazing conventional special effects (like wirework and standing very, very still), the brilliant CG effects or the twist at the end, but I just love this clip.
This [...]

The Swiss and Germans should get along quite well. German is an official language in Switzerland, they share the same kind of geography, the list goes on. Hell, the Germans even let the Swiss off during World War 2, which is more than could be said for virtually every other neutral nation at the time. [...]

The world is in turmoil as we speak. Swine flu is sweeping the entire known extent of the universe (rumours are even God himself caught it after a dodgy sausage butty) and the economic crisis means soon, you won’t be able to afford to breathe. Aside from all this, another global conflict is brewing in [...]
