Tomorrow, May the 4th, is Star Wars day. This blogger has made the decision to leap in, feet first, into a brief Star Wars frenzy. To kick things off – Geek Native has a copy of the Kinect Star Wars App ad. My first thought would be that this would have to be a Windows […]

Dragons Vs Unicorns – can there be a winner?

April 2, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

March 27, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood 9 Comments

Samsung are into their video marketing and are pretty good at growing viral videos. I suspect this latest video to help boost the sales of the Samsung Note will be another success. The Samsung Galaxy Note is an Android device that’s larger than a phone but smaller than a tablet. It’s designed for, well, for […]

Race car science as micro arc oxidation helps create HTC One S cases

March 17, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Sometimes the science aspects of this blog merge with the tech aspects of this blog. Makes sense, right? The surprise is that it doesn’t happen more often.

The future of tabletop RPG? The Galaxy Beam

February 27, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Traditional tabletop roleplaying isn’t ignoring technology and is not simply surrendering to the MMORPGs. For example, Pathfinder is being developed for the online world by Goblinworks and they’re not using the traditional MMORPG model (a hybrid, in fact) for this, D&D have a new virtual tabletop and mobile sites like iPlay4e have shown some gamers […]

Brisk launches Star Wars game for iOS and Android

January 8, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The drink brand Brisk has launched a Star Wars game for iPhone and Android. The game is hugely tied into their Facebook profile and grows as people take part. I like the catch. Games have had the ability to unlock content before. This is a game and ad so the community has to unlock content […]
