Last night I had an iPad in my bed. It was a sexy piece of kit: slender to hold and so beautiful to look at you would catch yourself open mouthed and salivating. But when I woke up in the morning I felt dirty. This was not because of the news of overworked employee suicides inside the Chinese Foxconn factory. Or the fact that

While I’ve been busy wooing myself with my HTC Legend, it seems that Blackberry is on a mission to get all of us Android and iPhone 4 converts back. While you might be thinking that this is impossible, I’m actually thinking Blackberry has a glimmer of hope.

I love it when people embrace technology. I love it when people try out things they may not totally understand, and may even find really intimidating. It’s like when your grandfather sends you a text, or your uncle replies to you on Twitter, and throws in a hashtag for good measure. It’s refreshing.

After falling in love a few years ago with my baby blue, retro headphones from Panasonic, I’ve not do much as even browsed for headphones. I don’t see the point. I have my little ear buds I use with my iPod, and then my blue headphones for everything else. What more could I need?

L'Oreal has come to the rescue to those of us who are in need of a make-over with...augmented reality! Apparently we've entered the future. Which, admittedly, might be better than playing with the makeup counter testers, and then, having stepped out of the blinding store lights, realizing that you look like a kid's makeover or Dale Winton

Mobile phone applications can seem quite annoying if you have, say, a Blackberry. I am an avid Blackberry user, but as I’m still not GPRS, thanks to T-Mobile not supporting the Edge network, using any sort of app almost seems pointless. However, after testing out and falling in love with the HTC Legend, I am now a bit of a a Droid Market tramp.

When fashion blogger Blair Hartley flicked through a copy of more! magazine that she’d found lying around at work last Friday, she was disappointed with what she saw. Frustrated to see a number of features centred around the theme of ‘Inside Men’s Minds’ and using what she saw as insulting stereotypes of both men and women, she vented her thoughts on Twitter later that day.

How many people do you follow on Twitter, and how many strange things do they say each day? The network pulsates with streams of consciousness, and the daily observations of normal people who are funny, clever, silly or grumpy is what has inspired the Irkafirka blog.

Shanghai is a city that, a few weeks ago, I knew nearly nothing about. I know it’s a city in China. And I know that according to, eh, Wikipedia that it was originally a textiles and fishing town, and now it’s described as the “showpiece” for the world’s fastest growing economy.However, now I know that I’d love to visit the Brown Sugar bar in Zintiandi, Shanghai’s “nostalgic” area. I also know that I’d like to take a trip to Design Republic, which showcases a collection of intern...

People who get overly excited about mobile phones annoy me. Maybe it’s because I don’t like iPhones. Maybe it’s because I’m a hardcore Blackberry user. Or maybe it’s just because I don’t find phones nearly as exciting as swish laptops or pocket-sized HD video cameras.Or maybe it’s because I’d never used a HTC handset before now.
