Cup Of Coffee

We get posts in the forum which point out unlock sites on a weekly basis. This one (unlocksearch.com) seems to be a bit dubioous. I tried a few models and every single one said it was “unlockable” for only 3.99. After a bit more faffing about I decided to make up model names and, lo [...]

This blog post is probably just for those outside the UK as I’ve never seen the “infamous” IE8 adverts myself. The ads, which Microsoft are using in the US to pull people away from older browsers (and .. err.. Firefox) are pretty funn, although this particular one (below) does involve a fair amount of vomit.

In the video below the pilot states “I apologise”. Yeah. I think perhaps you SHOULD have said “I apologise for being so utterly stupid that I nearly killed everyone and not spotting the bloody roof above me”. Other stupid comments in this video include the camera man saying,

I doubt that there’s a quick-fix to this type of spam.

I know I shouldn’t diss the people who could end up helping you in an emergency, but these two ladies made me a little concerned. They’re both with the St Johns Ambulance and I’m not saying for a minute that they don’t do a good job, but… come on. What happens if someone needs help [...]

Bugger. Twitter is completely busted now. Looks like I’ll just have to shout loudly in the office and tell everyone what I’m doing instead… Update – Ah, looks like a massive DOS attack.

Way to not make a profit. If only they
