    Well, that was my first experience recording a video like that with YouTube. To tell you the truth, I’ve always just uploaded videos to YouTube, but I just found out that you can actually use the website to record a video directly from your webcam. It doesn’t matter if you want to talk about seagulls, [...]

    Have you ever wondered why you can’t use a mobile phone when you’re on a plane? Well, I came across an article today that talks about it, so here’s a snippet for your information:
    An airplane contains a number of radios for a variety of tasks. There is a radio that the pilots use to talk [...]

    I can’t wait for Arthur to get a little bit older so I can get him a couple of remote control cars. Well, he has some remote control toys already, but I mean the real deal, scale models of real vehicles with real engines. I was reading a bit about them on Igor Presnukhin’s blog, [...]

    Following that last post, I did a quick trawl around the Web and came up with some interesting options for Audience Response Systems. There seems to be a pretty large market of vendors selling wireless devices that can be used for anything from conferences to TV shows. According to Wikipedia, here are some advantages:

    I’ve packed my Christmas present away in a box so that I can open it up on Christmas day, but I must admit that I have been playing with it a fair bit. It works well, pretty impressive, but you need to remember to keep charging it. I had a Swatch once that ran for [...]

    One of the interesting aspects of my recent holiday was the fact that I was off the radar for a whole week. I had no land line, no internet and my mobile phone wasn’t working either! It wasn’t that there aren’t any available cell tower land leases available in Finland, just that as I’m on [...]

    Found a surprise on my desk this morning, my Christmas present arrived! I blogged about it before but for those who hadn’t seen the post, I bought myself a 2Gb MP4 playing watch. And today it arrived! Here’s the unboxing:
    The box shows what’s on the inside:

    There’s quite a bit of debate in the UK at the moment about garbage, recycling and refuse collection. A number of councils have started collecting refuse once a fortnight and enforcing recyling. While I’m all for recycling, I think that collecting rubbish every two weeks can be a problem for quite a few people. What [...]
