[F1] Button takes Austrailian GP Win

Jenson Button has won the Australian Grand Prix this morning, with a strong run keeping first all the way through the race. There was an incident involving a few cars at the beginning of the race, all seeming to come from a mistake by second place Brawn GP man Rubens Barrichello; which caused McLaren driver Heikki Kovalainen to retire. Both Ferraris retired later on in the race; Raikonnen due to an incident, and Massa due to mechanical failure.

Overall, this race was very different from the likes seen last year, and it's going to be one exciting season.

Full race results:

1. Jenson Button Britain Brawn-Mercedes 58 laps 1hr 34m 15.784s
2. Rubens Barrichello Brazil Brawn-Mercedes +0.8s

[News](Tech) Twitter, MySpace, and Wikipedia to become part of UK curriculum

In a farcical move, the former head of OFSTED has proposed that school children should be taught "modern media and web-based skills". This would mean school kids being taught how to use MySpace, Facebook, Blogger, Twitter, etc...

This is a bit too far. Children don't need to be taught all of this in school. Most are intelligent enough to figure it out for themselves if they want to try it. School should teach proper academic subjects; not how to use the web.

[F1] Wins to Decide 2009 F1 Champion

It has been announced today, that the winner of the 2009 F1 World Championship will be the man with the most number of WINS. Not POINTS. In my opinion this is a move away from the form that F1 fans have been used to since the inception of the championship, and I feel that it won't be as good as the "normal" points system. This comes from Ferrari's backing of the FIA, as if this had been a rule last season, Massa would have won the championship, on wins. Again, it's all to do with Ferrari and the big influence it has on F1 rules and regulations. Shameful.

[Info] EIB Review Ratings

In my video blog, I never had a chance to clarify the ratings I have given to the products that I have reviewed. But, never fear, for they are finally here!

* = Abysmal - Stay well away

** = Poor - A poor idea badly implemented. Forget it, move on.

*** = Average - Not bad, but not good either. Best for dedicated fans.

**** = Good - A good product that should definately be looked into.

***** = Excellent - An absolutely outstanding product. You have not lived until you have experienced this.

So, that's my ratings. Look out for more reviews in the future on the third iteration of The Emperor Ing Blog.

The Evolution of The Emperor Ing Blog

The Emperor Ing Blog started out life as a small, insignificant little MySpace blog, where I would post thoughts to my mates and such like. It then progressed to a YouTube video blog series, that involved music, drama, and crazy wierdness. (Check out www.youtube.com/user/emperoring). But, now, in it's third iteration, The Emperor Ing Blog comes back in force... on Blogger.

The Emperor Ing Blog 3 will offer news, reviews, and an aspect into daily life; and may perhaps include aspects of simulated life on the Nintendo life sim Animal Crossing LGttC. So, that's all to come, and I hope you enjoy reading the third iteration of The Emperor Ing Blog.
