2011 has been a year to remember. All sorts of horrible (and good) stuff has happened this year – it’s enough to make a man cry. You’ve all heard my most recent news (baby) but you might not have heard this. In March, while returning from The Streets gig in Norwich, I was caught speeding [...]

Clever link building with FREE iPad2
Posted: 28th April 2011 by By Adrian Willings in SEOTags: apple, ipad, link building, seo
A friend sent me this yesterday as he thought I might like to write a blog article and get a chance to win an iPad2, little did he know I hate Apple. However, I do appreciate a clever bit of marketing and in this case, a sneaky link building campaign. Playpennies are offering the chance [...]
BRINK – clever, appealing gaming?
Posted: 25th April 2011 by By Adrian Willings in Interesting DiscoveriesTags: BRINK, gaming
BRINK is about to be released on Steam. I have to admit to pre-ordering it, something I rarely do. I used my Ciao.co.uk money and I hope it wasn’t wasted. BRINK has, by all accounts, been rather a sleeper. I’d not heard anything at all about it until recently. Then I saw a video or [...]

News came today – my wife is officially pregnant! This might not sound like such a fantastic achievement to most people. Any fool with a penis can make a woman pregnant. But my wife suffers with polycystic ovaries which means that it is extremely difficult to conceive, or at least it is meant to be. [...]

Nowadays everyone and their mother has an app for the iPad. It’s the thing to do apparently. But sometimes you have to wonder – what’s the point? Like the Playstation app that lets you see your trophies – but not much else. Utterly pointless. There are some apps that have the potential to be useful [...]

Every year, we sit back and enjoy the pranks and jokes that come with April fools. This year, the team at Google came up with a right corker – Gmail Motion. A new ‘technology’ currently in beta, Gmail Motion tracks your physical motions and turns them into “actionable commands”. Watch this video for the hilarity [...]
The American – The shoeless killer
Posted: 1st April 2011 by By Adrian Willings in ReviewsTags: The American
Been wanting to see this film for a while now, ever since I saw the trailer at the cinema. Alas, I’m too poor to visit the cinema as much as I’d like, but luckily there is the joy of Sky box office and PSN. So we downloaded and watched it. I wasn’t disappointed. George Clooney [...]
