Up until this time last week, my shiny new bike had mostly been sat there collecting dust, then having it washed off by the rain ready for the cycle to complete. That’s not a happy life for a bike. So last Monday, I took it for a ride to work (yes, I know it was [...]

See demo → I thought I’d delve a little deeper into the various materials which Papervision3D provides and have updated my hello world to use a Phong shader to improve the way that the Earth looks. Using the Phong shader, I’ve put a bump map on which makes the mountains etc pop out a little [...]

I’ve just started playing with Papervision3D and thought I’d start off with the normal ‘Hello World’ program, but with a twist. Use the mouse to make the Earth rotate.

This morning I stupidly said on Twitter that I would do a dance when I reached 400 followers. I didn’t expect anyone to notice or care, but some people did and started badgering me. So, I made it. Here it is. Don’t laugh too much ;) The bit where I’m laying down was me attempting [...]

It turns out that the report was pretty lame, anyway. The good bit in my opinion though, is that this [...]

Thanks you!!! I hope that you will answer to me again after reading this letter!!! Ok, I wrote to [...]

Continuing on from the email from a nice russian desperate lady, I had a reply from her! I must say that it appeared in my inbox suspiciously quickly, it could be said that with her level of English and a human level of typing skills that it was an auto-reply. But let’s not down-play her. [...]

We all get lots of spam, and a lot of that spam is from people who are pretending to be nice russian ladies who are desperately trying to come to England. In december last year, we at One all got a lot from a person called Lauren, who used to be quite chatty, but has [...]
