R2D2 runnin' tings

R2D2

R2 was alreay pretty cool... but he’s taken this to the 21st century!

I've kept the image quite cryptic so not to spoil the surprise ;) 

Mario Kart Wii

MK

Finally got my hands on a Wii and Mario Kart Wii after holding out for months until the launch date. I'm a massive fan of Mario Kart and hammered the DS version to death. The Wii version has a more robust online play and some of the tracks are fantastic (Maple Leaf is my current fave).

So I throw down the gauntlet to any readers with a Wii and Mario Kart, my MK friend code is: 2148 8301 0963 — drop your MK friend code in the comments below and I'll see you on the highways of Mushroom City! 

Turn an old telephone handset into dj headphones

If I were a dj I'd have to make myself headphones made out of an old telephone (you'll remember seeing disc jockeys using them at d.i.s.c.o-s back in the 80's). Well here's a how to guide.

All you need is an old telephone handset, a soldering iron, a mono male phone plug and a sharp utility blade and you're away.
