Emoji for iPhone for Free

Posted by: Gavin In: Uncategorized ()

What the hell is Emoji? Emoji are Japanese emoticons specifically for mobile phones, which up until now have been for use in Japan only.

Did you know that you can view Emoji on your iPhone? If you aren’t in Japan or have a friend in Japan then probably not. If you haven’t come across Emoji before here’s what some of them look like:

The good news is that now you can get Emoji on your iPhone to send to other iPhones!

The process is pretty simple too but to help you out here’s what you do:

Reason I Hate Facebook #267

Posted by: Gavin In: Rants ()

There are a number of reasons why I don’t do Facebook. One of those reasons is that Facebook gathers all of your personal data and will one day use it for world domination. It may not happen tomorrow but trust me it will happen.

Did you know that by accepting the terms of service (you know that check box you probably don’t remember checking…?) you allow Facebook to have full license to your content?

Don’t believe me? Well from the terms of service under Licences:

Joaquin Phoenix on Letterman

Posted by: Gavin In: Random Stuff| TV ()

I’m not quite sure what Joaquin’s deal is here and some people are saying that it was staged but either way it makes for some great viewing.

For more platinum Letterman check out when Paris Hilton was on back in 2007.

Operator Please do porn

Posted by: Crazyman In: Music| Random Stuff ()

Apparently the ex keyboardist of Operator Please, Sarah Gardiner has entered the world of porn.

After Gardiner’s departure from the band late last year it’s been alleged that she has posed for the amateur porn site Abbey Winters under the alias of Tracia L.

While I was initially sceptical about the story, so far there’s been no denial from the band or Sarah and I have to admit that the pictures do look pretty authentic.

If you can stomach them then go check out the censored pics here & make up your own mind.

Trailer: Year One

Posted by: Gavin In: Movies ()

This one wasn’t on my radar but with the comedic stylings of Jack Black, Michael Cera, Paul Rudd and David Cross it’s now got my attention.

Another Year Another Hundred

Posted by: Gavin In: Uncategorized ()

So as Australia Day passes in another drunken stupor so does another Hottest 100.

A list of the hottest 100 songs from 2008 voted by one of the largest sample groups going around still leads to a massive amount of debate on what songs made it, where it made it and where it didn’t.

On a whole I was extremely happy with the Hottest 100 although the top 5 were pretty much set in stone before it even begun. Saying that the songs that did make it there were well deserved even though they were flogged on the radio to no end. Hearing them still resulted in everyone in listening vicinity to sing the shit out of all said songs reinforcing their position at the top of the pile.

David Cross on why Arrested Development was cancelled.

Posted by: Gavin In: TV ()

Arrested Development will go down in history as one of the greatest TV comedys of all time. It’ll also be remembered for being boned by Fox and I think David Cross’ thoughts on why are just spot on.
