A vicious attack carried out by a posse of italian pigeons.

If like me you live in a City, you'll know all about those flying rats that are commonly known as Pigeons. Without mercy they roam the streets looking for old people to throw bits of left overs, on the odd occasion they've even been known to mug passers by of their possessions, more often than not food based. When not mugging people, speaking from experience, they also like to shit on innocent victims, not caring about the consequences of their actions, they're more than willing to unleash a smattering of shit on by standards.

Finally ,there is a solution, those glitzy mothercluckers in the Hollywood hills have been putting their heavily bottoxed heads together and come up with a solution. Contraceptive pills for Pigeons, yes you read correctly, they're going to give the pigeons the same pills that Paris Hilton has been shoving down her neck for the last decade or so in a bid for them to stop re-producing like the horny little bastards that they are. Genius.

"We think we've got a good solution to a bad situation," said Laura Dodson, president of the Argyle Civic Association, the group leading the effort to try the new contraceptive. "The poop problem has become unmanageable and this could be the answer."

Wow, she's really got a way with words hasn't she?

This isn't my usual type of post so brace yourself. If like me your Firefox has been a right bitch of late and been crashing more frequently than a TWA plane manned by a gang of rogue gypsies then I've got the solution for you. You may need to put on those special geek milk bottle glasses you have lingering in drawers, anyway here goes:

1. type 'about:config' (no quotes) in the browser.
2. Find 'browser.sessionhistory.max_total_viewer'
3. set it’s value to “0″

Et voila, a crash proof Firefox! Does that now mean i'm going to heaven, probably not but what the hey! Enjoy!

We live in times of useless, pointless and utterly pointless tripe. Good to see that the fine people at Asahi have put their collective minds together and have come up with this scorcher. Too drunk to pour another, too lazy to serve your mother in law another drink as she slumps over your couch complaining about you inadequacies then this is the robot for you. It can hold six cans, has a programmable voice, cleaning mode and a child lock. Seriously! What more could you want in a mechanical being.

This is the only, and I really mean only thing I like about the PS3. Yeah, you heard, I've gone and said it now, I was slightly baffled when I first saw it but it soon made sense, as I hope it will to you. I'm a big fan of this sort of advertising, doesn't really have that much relevance to the campaign on the whole but engages consumers none the less. DAMN!! I've fallen for it again, this is exactly what those damn marketeers want isn't it? People talking about their ads, fuck it, I've done it now.......... See if you can see what it is, answer here --> A clown

This video is absolute genius, rarely do I come across anything so captivating and intelligent, maybe captivating is a bit strong! It certainly is intelligent though, I'm not going to give too much away by giving you the title of the video, just watch, absorb and enjoy.

Worry not my friends, Mayor Ken has not been smoking doobies with Pete Doherty behind the bike shed in Parliament and suddenly come to his senses. If you're one of the many inhabitants of London or have ever had the pleasure of gracing the fine concrete pavements then you'll know what a royal pain in the arse transport is and just how extortionate the pricing is. I mean really how on earth can they justify paying £2 to travel a matter of meters in static traffic with a bus driver busy facebook-ing his mates on his blackberry about the latest donut who forgot his oyster card! Oh the comedy! But anywho, this map shows all the routes of those utterly pointless yet 'free' bendy buses, yes, you read it right i just wrote the word 'free', this is mainly due to the fact that the bus isn't actually free but if you jump in through the back then the powers that be are none the wiser!! haha!! Beating the system, I love it!

Steve Jobs' Fake Blog
It's not very often that I find a blog I genuinely like, ironic I know! But anyway, this blog clearly isn't Steve Jobs, as the CEO of one the biggest companies in the world I'm sure he's got better things to do then to appease over avid Mac fans with his scribblings. The blog itself takes an extremely comical look at all things Apple and Steve Jobs, with such comical topic titles as 'Tony Blair and my little Pony', 'Bono's Driving Skills' and 'The Clinstones', as well as the gem in the picture above.

As the dust settles on the iPhone release it's genuinely quite funny seeing the fake Steve Jobs give his iOpinion and documenting his constant 'battle' with the powers that be, notably Universal wo don't seem to give an iShit!

Came across this rather interesting campaign by US mobile giants Sprint, they've strayed away from the usual lies that big firms pedal to their consumers and have opted for a more visually pleasing campaign that incorporates a great site and a series of commercials. The theme of this series of ads is the use of light to draw and is called Sprint Ahead, the artist in question is Jamie Kavisto who uses various flashlights to draw with. 'You can't draw with flashlights!' I hear you say, you're right, only once coupled with a time-lapse camera can the light drawings be revealed, take a look at video below to better illustrate my point.


I'm glad they've decided to target a younger audience with something people can actually enjoy, it seems that far too many companies/brands are too busy banging on about themselves, how great they and how they love nothing more than a bit of corporate arse licking. This has never been more true within digital media, where companies have endless scope to imagine what they'd like their campaign to be and with the progression of technology can produce campaigns thought unimaginable not so long age. Yet in 99% of cases brands are still sticking to the 'norm', by this I mean flogging dead pan ideas on websites, via SMS, Bluetooth and believing all things Social Networking are holy.
