DEMO: The Google Nexus One in Action



As the launch of the fabled Google Phone, the Nexus One , has approached, more and more information has leaked out. Yesterday, the price of the Nexus One surfaced , along with information on rate plans for T-Mobile contracts. Today, we have full video of its elegant interface.

An extensive 10 minute video demo has emerged on YouTube via the French Blog Nowhere Else . While there is unfortunately no sound (and even if there were, it’d probably be in French), it does show off the menus, Android apps, and the user interface.

Click on link to original  to see two videos (personally, we think it’s drop-dead gorgeous).

50 of the Best Jokes of the Noughties

A list of best jokes is an impossible list to compile as we all have our own idea of what's funny but credit the Telegraph for trying. If you're knee deep in slush then maybe you'll find something here to brighten your day:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/theatre/comedy/6857240/50-of-the-best-jokes-of-the-noughties.html

A few personal faves and No 5 takes some beating:

43 Does the new paedophile in town approach the older paedophiles and ask them - ‘Where’s a good place to track down kiddies? Do you know a good place?’ ‘Well, it’s swings and roundabouts, really.’ (Frank Skinner)

39 Most of us have a skeleton in the cupboard. David Beckham takes his out in public. (Andrew Laurence)

28 One arm butlers - they can take it but they can’t dish it out. (Tim Vine)

24 You think things are all legal or illegal in this country. In Ireland that’s not the way we do it. We’re got a greater appreciation of the greyness of the human condition, between the white and the black. There are three states of legality in Irish law. All this stuff here which comes under ‘That’s grand’ then it moves into ‘Ah now, don’t push it’ and finally it moves into ‘Right, you’re taking the piss’ - that’s when the police sweep in. (Dara O’Briain)

 

 

 

23 Ellen MacArthur - how many times is that woman going to have go round the world before she realises she’s a f***ing lesbian? (Frankie Boyle)

7 You could solve the Jewish settlement of Palestinian territories by putting them on Northern Rock mortgages. They’d soon send the Geordie bailliffs round. (Mark Thomas)

5 I said to my girlfriend on Saturday: ‘How would you like to go shopping with the girls, get some new shoes, get your hair done in a different style and then go out for a couple of bottles of Chardonnay?’ She said: ‘That sounds brilliant.’ I said: ‘Good - because we’re breaking up.’ (Jimmy Carr)

'Hangover' Sequel to be Filmed in Thailand?

hangover-movie

Sources close to the upcoming sequel to The Hangover are saying that the next installment will take place in Thailand… Yes, Thailand. Director Todd Phillips says that the film is still in the scripting stage and this is only one of the many ideas they are planning.

Considering the fact that The Hangover has become the highest grossing R rated comedy in history and its recent Golden Globes nominations, the studio probably wants to fast track this sequel.

via Filmstage

The original movie made me laugh out loud so it's good to hear there will be a sequel. That's just so long as it's 'fresh' and doesn't rely on the 'animal' (on left in photo) marrying a Katoey for it's laughs!!!! You can bet your house a katoey will be in it somewhere.

Avatar

I went to see Avatar at Central on the Beach Road yesterday.

Really enjoyed the 2hr 40mins movie and a couple of eleven year olds in our group gave it a score of ten out of ten. Professional reviews are all over the Internet so I won't even try. What I will say is it is visually stunning in 2D so I can't imagine what it looks like in 3D.

Things to note.

The movie is rated PG13.

The show times on the Internet didn't seem to tie in with the showtimes at the cinema. The 2D version is shown all day from 11:40am but the 3D version is only shown in the evenings.

Ticket prices for the 2D version are Bt600, Bt150 and Bt120. I bought Bt150 tickets and the seats are probably the worst I've sat in at a modern cinema. The lumber support seems to push you out of the seat and when you recline and mold yourself to the seat you end up staring at the ceiling. I tried the Bt120 seats on the way out and they are much better. It's wort h considering when a movie runs for 2hr 40mins.

Enjoy it. I did, in spite of the seat!!!

DJ Nakadia Comments on Thailand's Party Scene

“Koh Samui developed more and more into Asia’s Ibiza,” she adds. “Every month more clubs opened and hundreds of international DJs spend their holidays on the island. It was so much fun to play on Samui this year. I would call Koh Samui the party centre of Southeast Asia in 2009.”

Standing out for Nakadia this festive season are the parties slated to be held at Chaweng beach.

“At Monkey Bay on Chaweng beach and at Lake View next to the Chaweng Lake you will find two of the best open air venues in Southeast Asia,” she adds. “For New Years Eve I would recommend Koh Pha-ngan. Since December 31 is also full moon, the Full Moon Party on Koh Pha-ngan will be huge this year. If I were staying in Bangkok, I would probably be on the State Tower for a New Years Eve dinner and then party through the night at Demo in Thong Lor.”

True to her word, Nakadia will be spinning at Thong Lor’s most talked-about venue on January 2 before gigs on Samui, Pha-ngan and Phuket.

New Ball for World Cup Finals - Adidas Jabulani

The British tabloids have been filled with tales about how those dastardly Germans are already playing with the ball in the Bundesliga, while England will have to wait until the summer. It's like sun lounger-gate all over again. Argentina and the USA are also said to be getting acquainted with the ball early doors, while some wag observed that Thierry Henry can't wait to get his hands on it.

Bums & Boobs - Gift Idea

‘Bum and Boob’ Gel Filled Mouse Mats

We can think of at least a pair of reasons to get your hands on one (or both) of these!
These mouse mats are fantastic for blood circulation, are great for relaxing the arm muscles and add a cheeky moment to every click of the mouse!

The gel filled bum or boobs offer ergonomic wrist support, and the titillating images will stimulate you, relax you and make you want to get your hand on that mouse!

The ‘Bum and Boob’ Gel Filled Mouse Mats is available from Boys Stuff for $8.95 .

Looks like the 'Oriental' mat out guns the rest. Not what we've been led to believe but maybe it's a clue to where the mats are made.
