A great Google hack that can be adapted to search for any file type that you need. Just use the examples below, typing the bold text into Google’s search box to find whatever file extension you’re looking for, then include as many keywords as you need to narrow down your search. Example 1 – searching [...]
Just recently an institute in Georgia, America has announced it has created a material that can produce electricity when it’s worn. Every tiny movement in the material would produce an electrical current, because of the make up of the fibres. Potentially, a 1 metre square piece of material would have enough power to charge a [...]
A proposal has been put forward for the UK to join forces with NASA to lead a moon mission – with robots. The idea is to fire small robots from a satellite to bore into the moon’s surface and take samples – then beam this information back up. The satellite would then communicate the data [...]
This is a great tip, and one that I will attach a warning to: Use at your own risk, and don’t blame me if you find something you didn’t want to see – it’s almost like a lucky dip so anything and I mean anything could appear!! But for those of you who are brave, [...]
Just a quick post to say exactly the same as the title.. The BBC iPlayer is now compatible with firefox, so you won’t have to shudder while firing up internet explorer every time you want to watch an episode of Jonathon Ross!

But then we have to remember this was the time when the 128K spectrum had just been released… And all this [...]
In a story that has made an appearance in Tech.co.uk today, the East Japan Railway Company have installed piezoelectric generators in the floor of a ticket gate in a bizarre field study. The generator will capture the commuters’ stepping power as they walk through the gates. The amount of power produced at the gates is [...]
There are lots of people saying how this prank prevented people from doing their jobs, blah blah blah. What is for sure though is that this looked like a lot of fun! Stunned faces and perplexed presenters where everywhere when the Gizmodo crew were let loose with “TV-B-Gone” kits from Makezine. The kit sends a [...]
OK, this may be a little misleading, but this has been around for ages, and thanks to a guy in Holland, you can watch starwars from the command prompt. Obviously lacking a bit in the sound department, this is still a work of genius. Do it tomorrow at work – no "boss" key required! All [...]
