• In case you didn't spot my hidden link last week, you can now play Repton, Chuckie Egg, Hopper and other 80s computer game classics online. Not that I'm recommending you waste your whole day at work clearing away the diamonds, you understand.
• The latest YouTube star is geriatric1927 (or 78-year old Peter from somewhere in central England). He only published his first two minute video ten days ago but now, eight videos later, he's been viewed 300000 times to worldwide acclaim. Just for being himself. Fair warms the cockles of your heart, it does.
• London Walks for your mp3 player - gosh, that's a good idea. Includes Soho, Greenwich and the City, amongst others, so far. [via Londonist]
• With the emergence last night of BBC1's "The One Show", comparisons are already being made to 70s current affairs legend Nationwide. Sorry Adrian and Nadia, but there is no comparison - Nationwide was tons better. Click 1969 on this timeline and you can even reacquaint yourself with Herbie the skateboarding duck.
• This month's dg kitten experience is brought to you by Mister Herman's Cat Games. Discover 48 ways to torment a cat, including "Kitty Under Glass", "Tape the Kitty's Paws", "Sleepy Kitty Surprise" and far, far worse. Nobody would ever actually play one of these games, obviously, would they? [via in4mador]
