Tech, cats, cat-tech & being catty about tech. Basically I'm a tech writer who also runs a cat rescue. Well, I do have a lot of mice.
You know what I'd like to see in 2026...

Tom Hiddleston as Waluigi.

You know it makes sense

My perfect boy Bertles here demonstrating exactly why Colin built a keyboard shield. I keep telling him he needs to put them into mass production, everyone needs one 😆

Just a nice story about a tiny Nottingham band that got huge because someone found their record in a charity shop and posted it online.

I have definitely said this before but can we take a second to think how groundbreaking it was that Midland Bank (RIP) paid to advertise in 1994's Theme Park videogame? Like someone at a BANK convinced their bosses to spend loads of money on that. In 1994.

Genuinely impressive
3DO Classics - Theme Park - Intro
Hey remember Theme Park? If you don't, hopefully this video will jog your memory. It was a game I played a ridiculous amount as a child. Now I'm revisiting it for some nostalgic moments.

Colin's work (Rare, the videogame company) had their Christmas dinner the other day & got a Grinch in.

Today Google Photos tagged that Grinch as me 😐

Remember how tech companies started making their products look 'cute' so we'd accept them easier?

Well, Perplexity (AI company) uses a Netscape-esque early-internet feel for its AI browser Comet, and as a millennial it's working FAR too well on me. That serif font 😭 Encarta vibes
