Odigo – Sort of back

One of my favorite messengers, abiet one that is no longer updated is Odigo. www.odigo.org

Although you get a lot of jerks on there at times, I have also found some really great friends, and the option to live search a particular group, i.e. age, sex , star signs and mood etc is still a cool function.

Sadly of late it has been down a lot and now the website is back up again, so hopefully they will get that database rebuilt soon , so we can all connect again 🙂

James Bond to ditch tuxedo

Have to say after reading that the new Bond was going be blonde, then he will ditch his Aston Martin for a Ford Mondeo, and now wont be wearing a familar Tux in the next film as they want a trendy image, you do wonder if any of these people involved in James Bond have ever read the Ian Fleminings books?

I still believe like many that Pierce Bronson was a awesome Bond and they were mad to drop someone who had the perfect look and feel of James Bond.

To dump him and replace him with this trendy update is going to back fire I am sure and this next film has turkey written all over it.

Who knows maybe another change is to drop his gun for a feather duster 😉

One to miss for sure when its released.

Honda’s Robot (ASIMO)

The Honda robot (ASIMO) still amazes me, if you have never heard or seen this amazing technology from Honda, you must go to this web site and check out the pics and especially the video’s they have on there.

The way this Robot moves, walks runs etc never ceases to amaze the hell out of me, and boy would I love to be around in another 100 years time, as can you imagine just how much further this will have moved on by then!

To see this machine run , walk up stairs etc on its own is stunning 🙂

What a totally amazing job it must be working on a project like that!

Go there and watch and see the future!

F1 in Bahrain

Well, I was looking forward to the new season and more so as it was going have a new qualifying session and also tyre changes in the race again! 🙂

I found last years racing a bore to be honest, and hated that stupid 1 lap qualifying.

But this year got off well, the new format of the qualifying season was much better, although the last session seems pretty pointless to me and for sure wont go down too well with the green’s, cars just driving around to burn off as much fuel as possible before doing there fast lap.

Still it was intresting to watch for the most part and the actual race was pretty neat too! 🙂

Maybe its because Michael Schumacher is now 37 and although still a great driver, I wanted him to win as the underdog to the younger breed 😉

But hats off to Renault, they drove a great race apart from the failure of there other car.

If Jenson Button had not had probs on the start, who knows what the outcome would have been?

That Honda is a powerful car and with Jenson in it, it just has to have a great year and hopefully a win from him for us Brits 😉

Still great weekend of racing and looking forward to the upcoming one next weekend in Sepang.

See you there 🙂
