Recommended Tech Video Podcasts
This post follows up on my previous post about podcasts where I recommended Webb Alert as a great source of tech news on a daily basis, well I’ve now had chance to do some more ‘research’ in this area and here’s what I found!
First a bit of background, I realise I’m perhaps a little late [...]

It’s a safe bet to say that most people have tons of videos. They have it on their mobiles, computers, and other portable media devices. Most of the time, you want to transfer a video from one device to another but don’t want to spend time looking for a free program that will convert your [...]
Getting The Most Out Of Your Home Theater Audio, Part 1
Affordable big screen televisions and high definition have changed the average person’s attention level when it comes to their home video and audio components. It’s hard to walk by a large high def display at an electronics store and not want that experience in your home, and the masses have jumped in head first.
Once [...]
5GHz 802.11n – Has Wifi Finally Come Of Age?
I’m in the middle of a house move that is taking forever to finalise. At the new pad I was intending to install network cabling and ethernet ports in each room, as in the past I’ve found that WiFi connections just aren’t good enough to stream HD video.
However, I’ve been reading up on new [...]
My Next Phone Upgrade: Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1
I have a limited company that I put my blog expenses through to reduce my tax bill. I haven’t put my phone into the company name, because T-mobile wanted to put me on a new 12 month contract if I did so, which would have meant I wouldn’t be able to upgrade my current [...]
Review: Toshiba HD XE1
Most HD DVD players and disc may sport a lower price than Blueray players but they’re beaten technically by the latter’s built in 1080p support. This changes with the launch of Toshiba’s HD XE1. Now HD DVD has a champ that can best the Blueray camp.
I purchased the Toshiba just last week and find it [...]
Auzentech HDMI X-Tension First Card To Support HDMI 1.3 And Dolby TrueHD
I’ve been beating myself up a bit this week as I thought I’d wasted my money on a Auzentech Prelude 7.1 videocard in my new media center PC, as it wouldn’t help me play the new HD audio formats like Doly TrueHD and DTS HD, that offer superior sound quality over older Dolby formats.
However, after [...]
Building A Media Center PC
It’s been a while since I’ve written a post and I haven’t even had the time to keep up with my feeds. I did however find the time over the weekend to build a new Media Center PC. I managed to put the itself PC together fairly quickly, without too many cuts on [...]
Remembering The Neo Geo
In 1990 those of you who hadn’t adopted the Sega Genesis early were still using Nintendo’s venerable NES as your videogame console. The NES had a big library of games that appealed to a wider audience than games ever had, and marked the beginning of true mass market appeal for videogames. In retrospect the Genesis [...]
Show Me Your Desktop Amber Mac
Last week I asked Adam Ostrow from Mashable and Readburner to show me his desktop. This week it’s Amber MacArthur’s (aka Amber Mac) turn.
Amber is co-founder of MGI Media, but you might know her from G4TechTV’s “Call For Help”, Webnation, commandN or net@night podcast, which is hosted by Amber and Leo Laporte. It runs on [...]

Webb Alert is billed as being ‘your daily tech round-up’ which serves up the biggest, and latest news and reviews of what is happening with regard to the Internet and technology.
I’ve been a viewer of Morgan Webb’s (almost) daily tech news video podcast (of sorts) for nearly 4 months now and can confirm that the [...]

Friday Fun: Amazing Football Tricks Video
I’m a football fanatic and I played at a decent standard at school (my school won the national championships) and Uni, and until today I thought I’d seen every move possible.
That was until I saw this video on fourhourweek which blew me away. I actually think that the video has been edited somehow as some [...]
Friday Fun: Dwight Howard Superman Dunk Videos
I haven’t been a big follower of basketball since I was living in the States in 1997 and since Michael Jordan retired, but I do like to watch the dunking contents.
The latest dunking sensation is Dwight Howard aka Superman and his range of dunks is awesome. Admittedly it does help being 6′11′, but even [...]
MacBook Air- You’re Darned Castrated!
One thing I wondered about MacBooks was that they liked omitting standard fare. The average PC comes with second mouse buttons, 1.44 drives and 28.8 modems. But with a Mac…? You get a single mouse button, no floppy and no modem. You want those, you pay extra.
Now, Steve Jobs releases the latest product in [...]
Show Me Your Desktop, Lisa Bettany
Last week I asked Duncan Riley to Show Me Your Desktop. Duncan started a new urge in me. I want to replace my two 19″ monitor with 22″. If you don’t want to be tempted, then please don’t read last week’s interview with Duncan Riley.
This week it’s Lisa Bettany’s turn to share her desktop with [...]
