I discovered this awesome WordPress plugin yesterday called Keyword Luv. Basically what it does is it allows you as a reader to get a link to your website with the keywords of your choice. It works like this: YourName@YourKeywords Example: Dave@Wacky Views Then once you fill out your comment you will receive a Do-follow link back to your website with the keywords that you entered, brilliant! Just remember, all comments written should be meaningful and not “fake” otherwise they will be deleted.

The much anticipated downloadable content for the brilliant Grand Theft Auto 4 game has been given a release date. The new content will be released on the 17th February 2009. This information comes from USA Today who also has said that the content will consist of a new episode and also a new character called Johnny Klebitz. The main character from GTA 4, Niko, is meant to have only a small part within this new content. The Rockstar boss, Dan Houser, said that we will be seeing “a different side of Liberty City” and that “mysteries from the main story get explained”. So by the sounds of that, it looks like we’re in for a treat with this new content,…

If you haven’t turned your Xbox 360 on today, you should now. The new Xbox Live Experience is now live. The update only takes a few minutes and as soon as you’re ready, you get a nice video before you set eyes on the brand new style. The first thing you are asked to do is make a new avatar, and they are awesome! You can customise absolutely everything about them, eye shape, hair shape, hair colour, body proportions, everything! After making my avatar I took a quick peak around the new dashboard, everything looks brilliant, the only problem I would say is if you are looking for an offline friend, you have to see each friend before you find…

On Friday I found these new ‘Power Assisted Suitcases’ and they are pretty cool, basically, the idea is that in the handle of the suitcase is a pressure pad, and as you put more pressure on the handle, say if you were walking up a hill, then motors in the wheels kick in and help you out, which, apparently will make it feel like you are pulling a 3kg suitcase whatever the weight is; then as you go back down a hill, the recharger in the wheels recharges the batteries for the motors, pretty cool huh. But this is my problem with them. Surely, when you pull your suitcase up a hill you obviously put more pressure on the handle,…

As you might know, the World of Warcraft expansion, Wrath of the Lich King, has now been released and the battle to level 80 has begun, well, for some people that is. I ordered my Wrath of the Lich King from Game.co.uk about a month ago and knowing Game, I received my game the day before it came out, which is rather awesome as it allows me to install the game and play it as soon as the servers open up at midnight. But for some other people that have pre-ordered the game, this hasn’t happened. Several people I know ordered their games from Play.com, and did not receive them a day before, or even on the day of the…
