Fantastic video footage of London from 1927. 1927! Bloody hell, that’s older than my nan (well she doesn’t have a birth certificate, but we reckon she was born in 1930).

Flake with that?

The99

The 99 are Muslim cartoon superheroes, each possessing one of Allah’s 99 attributes.

Religion and cartoons – not my cup of rosy, but the characters and illustration are intriguing.

Ribery

The Ribéry Pink Panther ad – a wonderful idea featuring a wonderful player (trust me, Bayern are pretty dicey without him). They’ll have a job on their hands convincing the average Sunday league player that he should wear pink footwear, but hey, full credit to them for trying.

Robots – from Metal Mickey to the Smash fellas, they’re always top-notch entertainment. Not unlike wrestling, which, at it’s best, is more thrilling than crisps. What on earth would happen if you combine the two, robots and wrestling? Witness the fitness!

The official Downing Street YouTube Channel encourages visitors to post video questions to the Prime Minister. Big Gordon has promised on his nan’s eyes that he’ll respond to the most popular questions at the end of June.

I’d like to ask him why he married Geoff Capes…

With Adobe due to release the CS4 software suite sometime in the near future, I thought a trip down memory lane would be a good idea and found a link to the original demonstration video (recorded on VHS) for Adobe Illustrator 1.0.
