Watching the Melodifestivalen final

If you go to the Social page on this website, you’ll see a stack of photos from last Sunday’s get together to watch the Melodifestivalen 2010 final on the big screen. Shots are lacking captions because I am waiting on the lovely Patrick to get back to me and remind me of all the names [...]

Youtube is like peanuts…you can’t stop at one!

Bloody Youtube. It’s addictive. It’s done it to me again, like it has so many times before. All I did was look for “Rollercoaster” by B*Witched. I found it but there was a list of other B*Witched clips on the side of the page. And so I looked at another one….and another one…and – well, [...]

Matthew Mitcham is not circumcised

The things people search for on the internet………. I’ve been having a look at the statistics for visitors to thebestjudge.com recently and have noticed some really interesting ways people find this site. The things people type into search engines never fail to bemuse me. Still, I suppose I’ve done the same thing so I shouldn’t [...]

“Just leave everything to me”

After a very slow start, I ended up having quite productive afternoon and early evening sorting out a load of issues for my dear friend, Yoda. It all started last weekend actually when I’d given his PC a much needed spruce up. It was running like a dead dog and needed some drastic action. Hundreds [...]

JudgeG vs Windows 7: a long, dirty fight but I won!

Oh my god, what a weekend! What a four days, in fact! I was up until 5am on Monday morning fighting with my PC trying to install Windows 7. My PC did a little freak-out attack after getting about 95% through the installation – it rebooted, the screen was black and that was the end [...]

I’ve had my gorgeous little Nokia e63 – the phone I lusted after for months – for half the year now. What’s it been like living with the e63 and has it lived up to my expectations? Well, it’s been really good. It’s a wonderful little phone nad any technical issues I’ve had have mainly [...]

My Birthday Present: Anything But iPod!

Darling Yoda bought me the perfect birthday present this year. Very happy, Jan! It wasn’t easy because every goddamn shop in the country sells those awful Evil Apple Empire things called iPods. And they don’t offer much else. Yoda had to be pointed to…er, I mean…had to discover for himself, a special online shop that [...]

7Digital.com – my alternative to the Evil Apple Empire

There are two things I hate above all with today’s commercial music sales environment – downloading songs and Apple’s strangehold on the market. I like physical CDs and CD singles. Until recently I’d never considered purchasing music downloads – instead I’d go to extraordinary lengths to source the physical discs from the other side of [...]

My virtual holiday slide night: Stockholm 2009

How people have the dedication to spend hundreds of hours editing videos I have absolutely no idea. The clip below has taken me about 8 solid hours and one ‘draft’ version that got deleted this morning from Youtube. I thought it might be fun to put some of my trip photos into a ‘slide show’ [...]

Getting connected is a blast

Okay, here I am on the other side of the world and Im fully connected. And with an amount of ease and at prices which are astounding. First up: mobile phone We are in a 3-like country so international roaming rates are are a fraction of what they’d be in non 3-like countries. Also, for [...]
