Rob's Photos →
When he’s not flying down the side of a mountain on his board, Mr Younger sneaks out to take photos. He never did share any, until last night, when he sent out a link to some of his pictures. It was worth the wait. Gallery Folder - photo.net

I want this desk →
Han Solo Desk - just pretend you’re Jabba the Hut all day long (where is Princess Leia in the gold bikini and neck chain - now there’s the perfect office accessory)
Ella is a Rock Star →
And just to prove it, she needs shades to eat her breakfast on her birthday morning.

Blood Powered Tattoo/Phone Thing? →
Cool but very scary concept. I’m guessing JB is already in the queue to get one, so he can realize his dream of the perfect gadget.
Gazza's Mental →
Not that we didn’t already, but to be detained under the mental health act isn’t your usual run of the mill get wasted and fall over incident. I just hope Britney takes heed, and stays away from Newcastle BBC NEWS | England | Tyne | Gazza held after hotel incident

Or, in simple terms, get the DRM out of your iTunes purchased music, and share everything with all your friends. I’m guessing it’ll be about 20 minutes before the lawyers from Apple come knocking, so download it quick…. doubleTwist | Home Page

Small Car Heaven - Fiat Abarth 500 →
I’ve been waiting for the official announcement of this little pocket rocket for a long time, and now it’s finally here! Not super quick, but super cute and super small, and the upgrade to the body and wheels looks cool. Now, if only they’d start shipping them over here, I’d be able to buy one.
Geeky Map Stuff →
The UK government opened up an API to it’s maps, so people are playing (once they’ve filled in every detail of their childhood to get a release to use it). Seeing the old maps that I grew up with kind of makes me want to go back, but not that much ;-)

Tumblr Promo Feed →
So I started messing around with this Tumblr thing a while ago coz I’ve been following Fred’s blog for ages, and he mentioned it. Then Lindsay got into it, and Nick got hyperactive.
I still haven’t worked out how to use it all yet (can’t get my bloody Twitter feed to work for one), although Nick solved my comments issue (but I’ve held off). One thing I kinda thought...

Blow Up Hot Tub →
Could this be the answer to the Hot Tub addicted Mr Penn’s problems? Throw it in the back of the car, and where ever you are (and provided you can find some water, and I presume electricity) you can blow up your very own hot tub. Alternatively, you can just use it as a cheap skate way to get one in your back yard. Just avoid the pointy sticks when you’re deciding where it’s going...
