Insta360 4K 360 Camera Review

March 31, 2016 By Ritchie

As many of you would know, I’m quite the fan of 360 camera technology, especially with its relationship to VR and Google Cardboard content. I’ve had a lot of fun with the V.360 sports 360 degree camera around the beautiful sights of Sydney, even so far as attaching the 360 camera to my scooter and […]

360 Degree Video Review & Camera Demo

July 27, 2015 By Ritchie

Now and then along comes technology that really does blow people away. I’ve been showing friends my 360 Youtube videos and it’s literally the first time they’ve seen this format of video before. The combination of amazement and confusion while trying to work out exactly what is going on in the YouTube player while they […]

Want to Join My Virtual Garage Band?

July 7, 2015 By Ritchie

Everyone has their own way of unwinding after a long day, and mine is to pound the skins on my Yamaha DTXplorer electronic drum kit. As you can see from the video, the fold away kit actually fits very nicely in my room in front of the familiar blue couch. Thanks to my riffing mate […]

The Dangers (And Thrills) of 360 VR Videos

January 8, 2015 By Ritchie

Let me show you one of the benefits of having a full 360 degree camera vision. Now, there may or may not be something suspicious going on in the front row of the Paul McCartney VR performance produced by Jaunt, but I just had to put it out there to see what you guys think. […]

Youtube Announces Subscription Service

November 14, 2014 By Ritchie

Yesterday, Youtube announced what many of us have been hearing for a while – a music streaming servic called Youtube Music Key that ties in both music videos via Youtube, and audio tracks from Google Play Music. I’m currently a user of Spotify, and I like the interface, the quality of the music when downloaded […]

Youtube Forces Commenters to Use Google Plus

November 19, 2013 By Ritchie

Google Plus Youtube

In one of the most unpopular moves by Google in recent memory, Youtube users have been forced to either sign up for, or start using their existing Google Plus profiles in order to post comments. This move sparked a massive movement, not only by the YouTube viewer community but also by popular Youtube personalities as […]

Steve Jobs’ Legacy is in the Clouds.

October 7, 2011 By Ritchie

Yesterday, shortly after the passing of Steve Jobs was reported, my Twitter feed and Facebook news items were almost exclusively reflections and tributes for the co-founder of Apple. Amongst the quotes and condolences, one comment stuck out for me : “Steve Jobs is in the iCloud now.” That particular statement resonated with me as I’ve […]

Samsung Series 5 Chromebook: First Look

September 23, 2011 By Ritchie

If you’re an 80’s kid like me, then you must have seen the original Ghostbusters movie. Aside from the actual creation of the Ghostbuster team, one of the other great sub plots was Sigourney Weaver’s character Dana Barett being taken over by a demon. In an especially memorable scene, Bill Murray visits Dana, who has […]

HP DM1 Notebook Unboxing

May 24, 2011 By Ritchie

If you recall from our previous Toshiba netbook unboxing, we came away quite impressed with the combination of performance and portability in such a small machine. One of the key components in that model was the new C-series APU, part of the new Fusion range from AMD. Given the high marks for that model, we […]

The Dyson Fan Goes Forth and Multiplies (Video Below)

January 9, 2011 By Ritchie

In late 2009, Dyson approached Bing Lee and other major retailers with a proposal to sell a top secret new product. At the time, it was very hush-hush and quite intriguing. Dyson are very similar to Apple in that they have a very loyal following. New products are gobbled up and analysed by end users […]
