Woody  Allen Challenge 1965 - What's New Pussycat

I’m watching all of Woody Allen’s films in chronological order.
Set in Paris, a struggling writer on the brink of a loveless marriage seeks solace in the city’s many nocturnal delights. Featuring a suicidal young woman, a cameo by Toulouse-Lautrec, and some delightful shots of Paris and its surrounding countryside.

Is this Woody Allen’s “Midnight …

 
Woody Allen Challenge 1966 - What's Up Tiger Lilly?

I’m watching all of Woody Allen’s films in chronological order.

I’ll confess, I tried watching What’s Up Tiger Lilly a few years ago. I didn’t get more than 40 minutes into it before switching it off in a mixture of boredom and disgust.

I’m not sure who first came up with the idea of revoicing a …

 
Woody Allen Challenge

As I watched Woody Allen’s latest film – Midnight in Paris – I realised that there are so many films of his that I haven’t seen.

So, I have a brand new resolution for 2012.

Watch every single film Woody Allen has made.
In chronological order.
Posting reviews on this blog.

Woody has made over 40 films – so …

 
Review: Motorola Pro Plus

In my quest to find the perfect phone, I was recommended to try the Motorola Pro Plus by Seb Schmoller.

This is my attempt to review it fairly after a week of usage. Some people have accused me of being unfair in my review of the Nokia Lumia. I think I was harsh …

 

Gobsmacked. This was the first piece of theatre in ages which left me open mouthed throughout. But let me start at the beginning….

I’d only vaguely heard of Howl’s Moving Castle before I saw the Southwark Playhouse’s latest show – although, to judge from the audience, it attracts fanatically devoted readers.

Entering Southwark’s vault …

 
Lumia Review

It was the best of phones – it was the worst of phones…

I want to start this review by saying three things:

I got this phone for free – thanks Nokia!
I’m an extremely demanding mobile user. I recognise that I am an edge-case; what I find annoying, you may not.
I’ve tried to stick to actual …

 
QR Pal - When is an Android App not an Android App?

It’s been a while since I did a screenshot based review of a mobile app. I was gratified when QR Pal asked me to review their new app.

First thing’s first, this is a great idea for a QR Scanner. It saves all your scans – so you can retrieve them by category, …

 
Review: Evoluent Vertical Mouse 4 (and how to make it work in Ubuntu)

The Evoluent Vertical Mouse 4 costs close to £100. Let’s get that out of the way. This is a pretty expensive mouse. Considering they give away basic USB mice with cornflakes, why would anyone spend the cost of a Kindle on a pointing device?

Let me explain…

“The two things you’ve got to …

 
Review: WorldCard Mobile

The only thing I love more than giving out my business cards, is taking business cards from others.
Unfortunately, my current “to do” pile of cards is getting a little… unwieldy…

Enter WorldCard Mobile – the app for Android which claims to be able to recognise the text on business cards and add them directly to …

 
Review: Verso Arc Light for Kindle - from LightWedge

As you may have guessed from previous posts, I love my Kindle. I often read late into the night, which either means keeping a light on and annoying my wife – or using a book light. Normally, I’d be happy just annoying her – but I can’t resist the allure of buying …

 
Review: S16 Mobile Phone Watch

Like many people, I no longer wear a watch. I’ve got a phone which tells me the time and data – why do I need something cluttering my wrist?
The Evolution of the Watch
I wasn’t always this way, I used to love high-tech watches. Throughout my teenaged years I had one of those calculator …
