Stumbled upon this while browsing the interwebs. It’s a music video by a group called No More Kings. It’s quite amusing. If you know your Karate Kid.

Came across this little gem on pcdoctors.co.za, one of the forums I lurk on. This is what happens when you ask what can only be a truly uninformed question on a technical board: Hard Drive Weight Gain

This must be some kind of joke, surely? Ars Technica, a web site that keeps track of events in the technology world, reports that a woman in the states has been convicted in a civil case for pirating 24 songs. For this, the jury awarded the music company a $1.92 million payout. That’s in the [...]

I’m very glad to hear that the leading mobile manufacturers have finally agreed to a standard interface for power charging for their mobile phones. I’m especially pleased to hear that they’re considering the micro-usb interface which many cellphones already have.

As you can tell from this blog, and from yesterday’s post, I like to play around with programming code, such as visual basic, c#, and web languages like HTML, and JavaScript.
