uVme: the next YouTube?

Online games of skill? Win prizes online based upon ability rather than chance? Win money without gambling? $14,000,000 USD being spent on this per day? You want in on it? You want to get a cut? Hmmm… doesn’t sound like your ordinary pyramid scheme, or trapezoid scheme for that matter. uVme is here.

Roger that

So Roger Federer has matched the five straight Wimbledon wins of Bjorn ‘the’ Borg. It was a tremendous final to watch. I just think that Nadal will come back even better next year though.
Elsewhere Lewis Hamilton couldn’t win the British Grand Prix. Never mind. All I can say to Lewis is that all the fame [...]

I must admit stop-motion video of toys takes me back a few years when a friend of mine ‘Dido’ (no not that Dido, he was called Dido because his surname was Dyson, and no not that Dyson) made [...]

Unified Communications - now all the better
