Vodafone shut down their Egyptian network coverage during the revolution, arguably prolonging the event’s bloodshed and indirectly leading to the death of Egyptians who couldn’t summon ambulances when they were needed.

As you are well aware, the last few days have been somewhat of a nightmare for the many who’ve been stuck in cars along the N3 and Van Reenen’s pass. We are simply not used to snow and were certainly not prepared. But it wasn’t all doom and gloom, as this video illustrates.
When it comes to the food industry, one must always be on the lookout for exciting, new trends. As you know, Ass-Flavoured Products are very “in” right now and it therefore makes perfect sense for the Caltex garage at the Waterfront to launch a titillating new range of Pieman’s ass flavoured pies.

Some of us will probably always be enthralled by the way Heston Blumenthal, world renowned scientific food chef, comes up with what he does.

After a brief leaked appearance on Tuesday, the trailer for “”The Amazing Spider-Man” is back online for eager movie-goers to see. If you thought the crappy version of the franchise should never have been made, like I do, you’re in for some well-deserved relief: it looks quite good.

By now you are probably familiar with the chaos surrounding Rupert Murdoch’s empire of media companies, including the hacking scandal that has seen “The News of the World” shut its doors after more than 150 years. So it’s only a matter of time before someone makes a movie out of the whole debacle. This is what it would look like.
This will be the last time you will get to witness this phenomenon as it’s been reported that Atlantis will undock earlier than planned from the International Space Station tomorrow.

Here’s a fun video on gun safety, by Derek “Tex” Grebner, who describes himself on his YouTube channel as “a pretty unprofessional outdoors show host and an unbiased online gear reviewer”. In the video, Tex shows us how not to draw your Kimber Pro Carry II .45 ACP from its holster, by shooting himself in the leg.
Paul Allen, founder of Ancestry.com, not to be confused with the co-founder of Microsoft, has said on his Google+ page that the new social network may surpass ten million users within the next 24 hours. Zounds!
Many moons ago, Jan Braai set off on an incredible 40-day, cross country adventure. The mission was to criss-cross South Africa, visiting at least one National Heritage Site per day. And by “visiting” we of course mean “braaing at”. The entire adventure was documented for dsTV’s KykNet channel, and has been packaged into a great […]

Interestingly, this week ladies are taking the lead in embracing the art of Friday relaxation.

I think a lot of us forget that homeless people are actual people with talents just like the rest of us – sometimes it’s just hidden under some rags and dirt. Take this urban camper for instance: if you were to walk past him, chances are you would not even notice him. But click on this video and you’ll hear something you won’t soon forget.
Serenading the one you love has long been considered one of the most romantic gestures a man can make. But doing it by rubbing your penis against your body must surely be the most romantic thing you can do. An insect called the water boatman has the art down.
We all have our days when we forget to charge our phones, or simply exploit its battery power to the limit, and then end up offline, as it were. This is soon to become a problem of the past though because a French telecom company, called Orange, has big plans to save us all from the low-battery blues.
“My nipples were so cold they started talking to me.” I don’t know where to begin. There is simply too much awesome in these videos for me to add anything else. That would spoil it. Ladies and gentlemen, please allow me to make your day, nay, your weekend, by checking out Jean-Claude Van Damme in these beer commercials for Coors Light.
There is a lot you can do with an iPhone these days and there is a lot that Australians will do for a beer or two. Not too long ago those clever buggers even invented a pair of slip slops that could open a beer. Naturally, they have now merged their love of beer with their iPhones.
A massive sand storm, called a “Haboob”, wreaked havoc in Phoenix, Arizona when it came roaring through the desert like an apocalyptic nightmare on Tuesday night. The massive storm resulted in absolute chaos, delaying flights and causing power outages across the city.
