Not hard at all. Watch the T3 mute set about his work:

Snapped outside Clapham Common tube.

Cranky hacks.

I’m sure it seemed like a good idea at the time…

Newton, not Pollard.

And rather fabulous it is too.

Full clip from the Comdex 2001 video of Bill Gates dressed up as Harry Potter.

Also includes Steve Ballmer dressed as Luke Skywalker (I think…)

This just in from the Ricky Gervais publicity monster:

Ricky’s gearing up for a live tour - FAME

No dates confirmed just yet, but keep dropping by rickygervais.com for the latest info.

There’ll be several warm-up shows in London before Ricky starts touring properly - hopefully starting in Glasgow or Edinburgh which were Ricky’s favourite UK gigs last time. The London warm-ups will be a work in progress, proceeds will go to Macmillan Cancer Support.

Great headline, but I’m struggling to see how this is tech news…

The second free Ricky Gervais Thanksgiving edition podcast is available now from all good internets.

Looks like world plus dog is trying to download it at the mo - but persevere, it’s worth it.

Karl doesn’t like fun. Brilliant.

Grab it if you can from the Guardian podcast page.

Toshiba’s new B-SX8R rewritable printer can actually ERASE ink from the page. Seriously.

Comdex was THE tech tradeshow, until it suffered an untimely, slowly drawn out, spluttering death shortly after this video was shot. It’s since been overtaken by CES on the tech geek calendar.

You can relive all the Las Vegas action, direct from the show floor - shot back in 2001. We were soo ahead of the time.

I also got chucked out of Bill Gates‘ keynote for filming him dressed as Harry Potter…

Part two after the jump. The Bellagio fountains shot at the end was a lucky accident - we only had enough battery left to do one take…

London Lite’s crack team of internet reporters managed to not only print something really, really old again last week. They also managed to include probably one of the most incomprehensible addresses ever:

svt.se/hogafflahage/hogafflaHage_site/Kor/hestekor.swf

Yeah, cos people are going to remember that and type it in when they get home… (Oh, and to save you clicking it’s that singing horse thing from, like, four years ago)

Psst - London Lite ever heard of TinyURL?

Even older stuff, after the jump.

Well, pretty much what you’d expect. But it’s still worth watching, just for the look on the PS3 fanboys’ faces.

Yep, that’s what you want for the first performance of The Sound of Music.

There may have been slebs too - but I was too busy fighting through the crowd to get to the tube.

Either this is mega-weird spam or I’m being super dumb, but this means absolutely nothing to me.

You know laptops? And picture frames?

Writes young, but unnervingly strong, David.

Like the genius who realised that marmite plus cheese was brilliant, I have cleverly combined the two into this weird but wonderful picture frame thing.

And he only bloody has as well.

Less attractive from the back

Don’t sell yourself short, fella.

I’m not jealous though.

Now, where’s my laptop and hammers…

Orlando IS weird.

Google only speaks the truth.

No good will come of this.

Missed this last week - but the Guardian is doing three specials of the Ricky Gervais podcast, for free.

You can grab the Halloween special from the Guardian podcast page.

It’s still funny.

Here’s the skinny:

The Podfather

Three special free shows from three doyens of podcasting - multi-award winning Ricky Gervais and Steve Merchant (The Office, Extras) plus the round-headed idiot savant, Karl Pilkington.

Part I, Halloween October 31: Ghostly drivel abounds as Steve consults a text-based oracle, Karl experiences a kidney probing, Steve visits Bristol, Karl becomes a Godfather and Ricky tells of some lighter moments at the morgue. Plus a competition to win CDs and books signed by podcasting’s top triumvirate.

Two more to follow at Thanksgiving (23 November) and Christmas (25 December).

Snapped on Fouberts Place, Soho.

Play it again, play it AGAIN.
