Well the launch of Sky Player on XBL was a complete disaster!
XBL Preview
I can’t believe it, I got on to another XBL Preview! Yay! This one is for the new Twitter/Facebook/LastFM apps and the new Zune HD Marketplace.
Reading 2009
It was an awesome festival this year and even though I didn’t see many full sets I caught performances by countless bands, wandered an awful lot, met some great people and had a fantastic time.
Spotify
Recently there’s been a lot of talk about Spotify. I have to admit it took longer for me to check it out than normal because it was being compared to Pandora, and try as I might I just didn’t along with Pandora. I occasionally used LastFM’s radio feature, but I own a hell of a [...]

Assassin’s Creed
Finally got round to playing this last night (haven’t played a real game in years, it’s been all about Guitar Hero, Peggle Deluxe, etc. for me recently), can’t say I find it that great. The climbing and diving into bales of hay is cool and the killing is cool, but the walking about everywhere bores [...]
