Just caught this for the first time on BBC One. And what can I say except OMG, WOW, WOO HOO?

Yes, we have Rose! Yes, we have Daleks, and it looks like poor little Dalek Caan isn’t on his own. And it also looks suspiciously like all the rumours are true and DAVROS IS BACK.
And the [...]
No, not me. Well, not this time, anyway. This is a YouTube video that’s been getting some attention[1], and I thought I’d draw it to the attention of, oooh, at least three more people by posting it here. I won’t post the title, as that slightly spoils the gag…

Well, I’ve been half expecting this. Russell T Davies will be standing down as Executive Producer and Head Writer of Doctor Who after completing the four specials to be shown next year. There have been vague hints dropped here and there, and the timing is much what I expected. What I didn’t entirely expect was [...]
Having installed Firefox 3 RC1 and lost a few of my favourite extensions, I decided to see if I could persuade them to work. Most of the time when Firefox says an extension isn’t compatible with the current version, it’s lying. Well, not actually lying so much as taking the value of a variable called [...]
Now this was different. The fun starts when the Doctor and Donna arrive at an English country house in 1926, just in time to crash a party. While they were arriving and Donna was changing into something more suitable, Professor Peach was lying dead in the library after finding the answer to a question that [...]
…but sometimes I just stand in awe of the truly professional masters of geekery.
A case in point: KiX is a scripting language for doing clever stuff on Windows systems[1]. While it was created by a Microsoft employee, it’s very much an independent project. I’ve looked at it a few times, but never really got to [...]
Now that’s a provocative episode title, isn’t it? I mean, we know that the Doctor used to have a family, but they were all lost in the Time War before we got a chance to meet any of them apart from Susan, his granddaughter, who was travelling with him when we first met him. So [...]
It’s not entirely coincidental that the latest DVD release from “classic” Doctor Who which features those delightfully bellicose potato-headed nasties, the Sontarans, should be released just days after they made their long-anticipated comeback in the current series. The 2Entertain people knew the Sontarans would be appearing, so dropped this one into the release schedule with [...]
Oooh, a two-parter, so here goes with what’s probably going to be a long report…
While the Doctor is away teaching Donna how to drive the Tardis, something a wee bit odd is going on back on earth. Cars are being fitted with remarkable devices that clean up all polluting emissions, and that include a slightly [...]
More coolness and brilliance from xkcd:
Click to see the whole thing (it’s worth it!)
And if you’ve come back after seeing that, I’ll bet you want one too! I knew there would be a good use for those things…
