PicBlock: Block Porn Pictures From Displaying Automatically
I’ve never been a big fan of the way that most security services, particularly web filtering software operate. I hate the way they don’t really employ any intelligence about the content that is being viewed, and they either block a complete site or don’t, with no middle ground.
I don’t have any kids so my PC [...]
Claim Your PS3 Username On 17th November - No Console Required
I’m still considering whether or not to get a Playstation 3, but I think I will still try and claim my username. According to OneTipADay on the 17th November potential gamers will be able to log onto the Playstation site and claim their online usernames.
I think this is a great move by Sony - [...]
I Should Be Able To Get My Hands On A Few Playstation 3s - Want One?
Last year when the Xbox 360 came out, thanks to my UK ECommerce contacts I was able to get my hands on about a dozen consoles. Dollarman (who was my partner in crime on PGR3 - If you’re a serious Gotham racer you’ll know him), who was one of the lucky recipients, has just [...]

I read somewhere last week that Sony claimed that the main reason Microsoft made it to market with their next-gen console a year earlier than the PS3, is because Microsoft isn’t a technology company.
However, I really think Sony’s obsession with making the PS3 a technological marvel is going to be a big mistake. For [...]
Girl Promises To Streak At World Cup If Her Site Is Hit 11m Times
There’s a nice scam going around the internet at the moment. A 19-year old German girl is promising to streak at the World Cup if her site gets 11m visits before the tournament ends. The counter’s already at 6.5m at the time of posting so I’m sure she will make it.
‘Unfortunately’, I [...]
Poll Results: England To Win World Cup
I'm not quite sure why, but even after two horrible performances England have overtaken Brazil as favourites to win the World CUp in the poll I've been running.
I can understand Brazil losing votes as I think the aura around the samba team has gone after two very ordinary games, but there is no way [...]

More PS3 Problems? Rumours That Spec Will Be Downgraded
More bad news is circulating around the net about the Playstation 3. The latest rumours are that the spec is to be downgraded even further with lower clock speeds than promised at E3 2005, and also an external power supply a-la Xbox 360.

I don’t know if it’s me, but over the last week or so I’ve been sensing that commentators are slowly turning against the PS3. Maybe it’s the $600 pricepoint, or maybe it’s the lack of clear guidance from Sony on what the games are going to be like, particularly the online experience. I [...]
12May2006 | Everton | 0 comments | ContinuedPlaystation 3: Delayed By 6-12 Months?
Seems like Sony are paying for giving the Playstation 3 such a high spec, which analysts believe will delay the luanch by up to 12 months and has pushed the production costs to over $800.
Microsoft must be rubbing their hands. Not only has the Xbox 360 gone down better than they could have hoped, [...]
