Apple releases some stuff!
The 9th of September 2014 was a big day if you are geek like myself. A day I’d been waiting for, for quite a while. Something that promised to be … Read More
malfunction by Cyriak – mental but fun.
Having a normal day? Everything a bit sameish? Got a couple of minutes to be weirded out? Good. Then watch this clip called “malfunction” by someone odd on the internet called Cyriak. I found it strangely uplifting. Enjoy.
New windowless planes
The idea the plane boffins have had is to get rid of all the windows and turn the walls into massive screens. This has the benefit of reducing weight (apparently) and making the whole fuselage more structurally sound. Another big benefit is that it looks fucking awesome. Essentially, cameras will film the outside and then project the images on the inside.
It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia
It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia has been described as ‘Seinfeld on crack’ which I guess is kind of fair given the shallow cynicism of the protagonists and the ludicrous situations that evolve but they are from a very different social spectrum.
Goodbye London!
It is with sadness that I leave but also some excitement. Working in TV with a bit of freelance writing on the side was great and it paid for a degree and a shiny new pair of lasered eyes.
Moving abroad – the final countdown
Well, it’s all happening here at the Word of Ward. In 10 days from now, on the 18th, I am undergoing a continent/country/career/lifestyle change. I am mentioning this not to … Read More
Assassin’s Creed real life Parkour
If you have ever played Assassin’s Creed for hours then left the house, you sometimes find yourself looking at real life buildings to assess easy access to rooftops or cool things to run over. If you like Assassin’s Creed or Parkour then you should enjoy this 3 minute clip set in Paris.
Joaquin Phoenix’s Forehead
For just a minute, tilt your head to the left, watch this clip, marvel at the strange little face that appears on Joaquin Phoenix’s forehead and forget about things briefly.
Nice in France
Sorry I haven’t written in ages but I was moving house and then had a delightful couple of weeks in the south of France.
RIP Rik Mayall
I just wanted to say a quick goodbye to Rik Mayall. I would find it hard to add the hours I have spent watching him on TV but it would … Read More
Turns out I’m an apathetic non-voting scumbag
I want to vote, I really do. Unfortunately, like a lot of the apathetic bloody populace these days, I don’t.
Deadly snakes that could kill babies at large in North London!
Little did I know that I, as a North Londoner, have been living with the threat of DEADLY KILLER probably EVIL, RABID snakes for years.
Augmented reality bus stop
I think they could go a lot further and have zombies, Triffids, psychopathic clowns, Daleks, Stormtroopers, Cthulu, Godzilla, the Borg, giant mechanoids, the Blob… well, I could actually go on all day.

myhotel, Brighton
This isn’t really a hotel review as such – it’s more of an excuse as to why I have been a bit negligent toward the poor old www.thewordofward.co.uk website. The … Read More
Brilliant explanation of the Big Bang – space stuff on Youtube
There are also lots of youtube clips that teach you things. You can get totally educated and shit watching exciting animated clips and documentaries. I am currently watching a lot of astronomy related videos on youtube.
Fun with a Theremin
In case you are bored at work which, let’s face it, is likely given that you have read this far, I give you (drumroll…) – a desktop Theremin!
Conwy Castle, Wales
If you like castles or spectacular decaying edifices, I highly recommend Conwy castle. It was actually pretty fun to go on a bleak mid-week afternoon in January as well, as we pretty much had the place to ourselves.

I know the world moves at a quick pace these days, but do you remember that Felix Baumgartner guy who jumped from space to prove that science was cool? It … Read More
