..wow, almost 5 months since I last blogged! To be honest, I probably could have put more effort to set aside a short amount of time each week to update...but I got pretty bogged down in work.Nothing's changed really...still studying like I've never done before! But the good news is the dissertation is out of the way! Handed in a couple of weeks ago to the computing department with a very tired

Interesting feature in Skype that's always been there but I've never used is Skype Me. Essentially, this allows anybody in the world with Skype to call you without having to authorise them as one of your contacts.I've switched into this mode for today because I'm extremely bored...I'll update when (or if) anybody contacts me to see what those nutjobs want to talk about.*RESULTS*Pretty

Our regular Sky digibox packed up last week and sky were going to charge £65 for a reburished box with only 3 months warranty! After speaking with them, sky+ seemed to be the most viable option. Charging an intial £49 for the box and additional £10/month we would have the awesomeness of sky+ sitting under our TV.

I'm trying something new...I'm going to try to aquire some of the worst movies ever made in motion history. I'm not talking about the mainstream flops; I'm talking about the random films you have never heard of....mainly from east Asia.Some, that are already in my collection include:Shaolin Vs Evil Dead: A horribly drab film about a monk who goes around putting souls at rest.

Crikey, it's been nearly a month since I last blogged! Not much of a blog if I don't update it regularly, but then I've been extraordinarly busy these past few weeks. Now, I'm a pretty lazy guy, so I've been well impressed by the amount of work that I've actually done recently!Back again at uni, and as the title suggests...it's the miserable final year.

As you know, I quite often like to review a film I have seen recently and this one I really have to do! I just came from seeing the film and it is honestly one of the greatest comedy films of all time. In fact, scrap that....THIS IS the funniest film of all time!! My belly was hurting from laughing so much. Minute after minute the jokes and comedic actions kept coming... It's a very simple plot

On Saturday, Jenny and I decided to embark on a bit a hike and walk to London from near where I live. Having previously visted the moorings at Greenford, we were aware that The Grand Union Canal there would take us straight into Regents Park. My estimation was that it was about 10-12 miles and would approximately take us 3 hours to complete.It was a beautiful day to be out in the sun and the

IPTV is technology which allows streaming TV content available via the internet. So far, no mainstream broadcasters have featured this, although the BBC are planning trials this month.However, there already exists a few peer-to-peer programs that allow you to stream live TV shows to your dektop. The only snag is that the content comes from east Asian cable broadcasts, which means that 90% of the

Anyone who knows me is familiar with my huge collection of DVDs. So far, I have been keeping a record of what I own on an Excel spreadsheet...although accurate, not entirely useful. By sheer coincidence, I stumbled accross a software package calle DVD Profiler. This allows you to build a database of movies that you own, complete with detailed information about the particular DVD you own (cover

I thought I would have a quick browse of of people's blogs this morning using the "next blog" button on the top right of the screen. It seems however that the majority of blogs are a complete waste of space. By this, I mean that blogging has now become an advertising median. Four out of the six blogs I clicked upon were for advertising benefits. I have listed the four below and it's such a shame

Following the trend of blogging, a moblog is an online log of photos which you have taken using your mobile camera phone. I decide to set myself up an account at www.moblog.co.uk , which I believe to be the only UK based moblog site.

This being the first, and in true critic fashion, I'm going to slate the hell out of this abysmal piece of celluloid. Will Ferell's performance is weak at best, to say he is a comedian is a joke in itself. I'm not even going to bother about going into the plot because

Thanks to the snail eaters, all european iPods ship with a capped volume limit!

Do it fellow podders!! *update* - This will make your iPod ear-crunchingly loud believe me!! +nicks

For the past two weeks, I've been on the Actimel challenge. You know the one....it's plugged every 5 minutes on telly...and being a sucker for things like this, I thought I'd give it a go. Honestly, I think it's done me the world of good and I can see myself continuing to drink it from now on. The main advantage I've seen is on my digestive system. Now I don't won't to go into the ins and outs

Wow…didn’t realize it’s been 10 days since I lasted blogged. I haven’t been incredibly busy, just lazy really!! Like millions of other lemmings, I bought myself and Jenny an iPod (silver and pink)...mini ones to be precise. I like the fact that they’re incredibly small and stylish compared to their bigger brothers. Styling: The iPod is hands down the sexiest mp3 player one the market. The mini

Want to know how to unlock your mobile quickly, easily and most importantly...freely??? Then read on, as anybody can do this...no cables are required!! All you will need is the IMEI number (by typing *#06#) and the following piece of software: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/danluik/cyber_5.4.zip The software is pretty self explanatory and easy to use, so I won't do a step by step guide.

Google,google,google...will you ever fail to impress. It turns out, you can use google to spy on a variety of different webcams! Canon has a series of netcams that all use the "WebView LiveScope" software. They are frequently used by japanese sites. Unfortunately most are crawled by their IP address so determining their location becomes more difficult. Some model names are: * VB-C10 * VB-101 *

Well, this is day that I'm supposed to be going back to work...but I've had to call in sick because of the crazy traffic I was in yesterday whilst trying to make my way back to Rochester. The journey started well...the roads were fairly clear of traffic, it took me an hour to get to junction 30 of the M25 (which is pretty good). It was at this point I met a diversion which I was slightly

Venue: Avnish Pattni’s, Kenton The plans: To give a new meaning to the phrase: “I think I’m feeling it guys” (getting wasted beyond all recollection) Time: 1800 hours….TBC Additional Info: Free house, cheap booze…no caps, no hoods, no trainers (j/k). Cameras are a must to capture the mayhem and I have been informed that it is alright to stay the night. Oh yeah…if anyone has a Brita filter, bring

The other day I woke up and had the feeling my room was missing something. Looking around, I realized I definitely need a new TV, Hi-Fi and Bed! The TV I presumed I would get from Kent Freeads and the bed from Ikea….which only left the stereo. I came to the conclusion that getting a decent sounding system would set me back in the region of £300-£500 easily…a little steep for something that only

Everyone knows the serious security threats the internet brings. Whether it's having your credit card details phished or the MPAA/RIAA scanning your system for music you have “acquired”, it is incredibly important to make sure your system is secure/anonymous to the rest of world. Below are my tips to ensure you make it as hard as possible for unwanted guests to intrude your privacy. Step 1:

Today, with the help of my ol' man...a remote control dimmer switch was fitted in my bedroom. This allows me to switch on/off , raise/lower the light levels in my room with the aid of any remote.Programming the switch to accept a specifc remote code from a particular remote was a doddle. All that needed to be done was to tap the sensor 6 times and press the remote button you wanted to use.This is

We've all been there...at the booze section of the supermarket getting ready for a night of drunkenness, when someone complains that the vodka being purchased is too expensive! Well below is a great article on how to turn el cheapo Vodka in to Ketel One (must be a very smooth American variety). Roll on the Tesco value stuff.... Brita Vodka +nicks

Well folks, this being the first post I thought I'd explain the purpose of this blog. As you can guess from the title (This is my Strife!) my blog will focus on the day to day boring things I do. The target audience for this blog....friends and fans of the nicks! I'm using Blogspot at the moment because it's quick and easy...maybe in the future when my HTML skills improve i'll move to another
