Up, up and away.

The Internet is full of videos of people embarrassing themselves - its what Youtube has been built on! Some of the people deserve to be ridiculed and others pitied. This elderly man just needs a hug. Watch as he looses his balance going UP an escalator, and falling in slow motion...

Run dude, run!

I love this blog. Such a simple yet brilliant idea.

This guy places his camera at random locations, presses the timer button........and runs. The results are captivating.

iPhone? iDont Know

The iPhone came out - it was amazing apparently. I wouldn't know since they haven't come to Dubai yet. I have seen a few but unless I really use one I can't make a judgement of my own. The hacks were helpful as were the 3rd party apps, but it all came tumbling down when Apple released the new firmware 1.1.1. All that was, was no more and people were pissed. So I started looking for alternatives to Steve Jobs' offering. I have found a few, both of which are set to be released quite soon. The first is the Sony Ericsson W960i. I am a huge SE fan with my last 3 phones all from SE. This one looks good to me - 8GB internal memory, 3MP camera, WiFi etc etc.. it looks very interesting indeed.

Then there is the Bang & Olufsen Samsung Serenata, which is very intriguing. I know its going to be very expensive but then again everything B&O do is so what do you expect?

And of course I know for a fact that I am gonna get screwed the minute I buy whichever phone because they will either announce a newer version the next day or reduce the price. I think I'm going to go old school and use my dads old Motorola phone. And if anyone makes a comment I can beat them in the head with it -you can't do that with any of the new mobile phones, can you?
