But wait! What were you lot reading on this here site, and which technology were you using? In the warbled words of Shania Twain, come on over... Read More >>

In the most recent Gizmodo UK Shooting Challenge I set you the task of capturing park life, using the lyrics to popular beat combo Blur's top 10 hit Parklife as inspiration. Some of you took the opportunity to step away from your screens, go out into the spring sunshine armed with all manner of photographic equipment and snap away. The one rule was that the images must fit the lyrics; which as it turned out, wasn't an easy task. Read More >>

I spent absolutely effing ages thinking of a suitable challenge for this week; I've a little black book with ideas, but I just wasn't 'feeling' any of them. So to the bookshelf I went; flicked through some dusty old tomes and still couldn't make my mind up. So returned to the little black book and saw an entry near the top..

Avid followers of the site probably noticed that although our site was live today, there weren't any posts after 11am this morning, and commenters couldn't log in. Sorry. That was because we had some serious hardware issues with the servers that power the commenting system, not to mention the fairly important bit that lets us stick posts on the site. Thanks to some hard work from our engineers, the site's been moved to green and pleasant servers anew, the hamster-wheels restocked with fresh hamsters, and everything should be working again.

It's a common fact that the CEOs usually get all the headlines and limelight. Look at all your favourite companies, and I bet in most cases you can only name the big guys at the top, rather than those toiling behind the scenes, making the products and services we use and love. This week, in association with Dell, we're celebrating those unsung heroes with their very own week...welcome to The Dreamers. Read More >>

Digging into the data this site accumulates makes for fascinating reading; so much so, that we thought we'd start sharing some of these details with you in a monthly specs-sheet. Did you know, for example, that 49 per cent of our mobile users view Giz UK through iPhones? Or that Chrome is by far and away the most popular browser, with 48 per cent? Read More >>

I'll warn you upfront: these two opportunities are unpaid, but if you're a young 'un wanting work experience, or someone merely wanting to spout off about their chosen subject in under 1,000 words, we want to hear from you. Read More >>

While the snowy weather kept many of you entertained this past week, some of you took the challenge baton and ran with it. Boy did you run with it; making the job of picking a winner particularly challenging. On the surface, the brief was simple; take a 'streetscape' self-portrait in the style of celebrated American photographer Lee Friedlander. But the challenge was more than just a picture; I wanted the story behind it. Read More >>
