iPhone 3GS 16GB with Vodacom

I have waited a very long time for my iPhone, a total of 16 months to be precise.
I sadly, signed a contract with my old Cell Service Provider just before the iPhone 3G phone came out, and was quite sad that I hadn’t done the research before hand to see its arrival date. However, since [...]

Yuriy Shishkov-Russian Master Guitar Builder at Fender

I recently had the privilege of playing a Yuriy Shishkov Custom Stratocaster.
Not only was it the most beautiful yet MEAN SOUNDING Stratocaster I have ever played…its builder has an interesting history.
As one could probably imagine, electric guitars were a rarity in the former Soviet Union. This led Yuriy to build guitars for friends and colleagues [...]

Orianthi and Steve Vai

For all guitar enthusiasts…
I recently followed a link on facebook showing a duo with one of my fav guitarists Steve Vai. The other part of this duo is a 24 year old female Australian singer/guitarist called Orianthi.
She is relatively unknown in SA guitar circles but is internationally best known for being the last guitarist for [...]

Avatar

After seeing all the advertisement hype about this movie, Sian (my other half) and I were quite sceptical about watching it. I’m sure that some of you would agree that most movies relying so heavily on CG to make a profit, do so at the expense of good acting or for that matter a story [...]

I received my 3rd call for this year on Tuesday, and was informed that I was one of 15 finalists for a competition that I entered via sms on the 30th [...]

Living in Britain

Review a country? Who am I kidding? This “review” is mainly for South Africans considering a relocation. That’s because I lived there for 27 years before returning to the U.K. at the end of 2007. The topic could easily merit an entire website itself, and of course there are many sites you can Google, but [...]

Computer speakers

Creative Gigaworks T20
Although there are many options when it comes to choosing speakers to use with your computer, I can highly recommend these speakers from Creative (the people who basically “invented” sound cards quite a few years ago).
I use them with a laptop, and of course the built-in speakers that come with laptops are generally [...]

Battlestar Galactica

Battlestar Galactica is what Science Fiction is all about: Ethics, moral dilemmas, and tough choices, and a couple of super-awesome technology plot-devices to turbo-charge the story-telling delivery.

Sure there are lots of bad robots trying to wipe out humanity (and doing a damn good job of it by the end of episode one). Sure there is [...]
