Here at Dork Adore, opinion is still divided on the iPad. Susi has learned some big iPad lessons, and I really, really want one...although I'm still not completely convinced why. If you've already got your iPad, you'll probably want to keep it in the perfect, glossy condition it arrived in. We … [Read more...]

The best gadgets for camping
You're either a camping fan or you're not. For some, the idea of getting in touch with nature, sleeping under the stars and cooking over a stove is a little slice of heaven. For others, the idea of sleeping anywhere other than a comfy bed with an en suite is horrifying. Prepare to have your mind … [Read more...]
Doctor Who: The Pandorica Opens review
A few weeks back whilst reviewing the first half of the Silurian two-parter, I slipped in some smartarse about how it’s unfair to review the first part of such storylines on their own. I found myself thinking that again, rather more seriously, whilst watching The Pandorica Opens, the beginning of … [Read more...]
iPhone App Magnets
A little while ago, we did a piece on gorgeous looking fridges. The featured white goods really were aesthetically pleasing, but I think I've found just the thing to really ramp up the dork factor. iPhone app magnets. That's right, you can replicate the interface of your mobile onto the open … [Read more...]
Four pretty personal alarms
Personal alarms are now an essential item to add to your handbag on a night out. These pocket sized alarms can deter potential attackers, and give you peace of mind if you have to travel home alone on a night out. But, on a superficial level, they often look quite....dull. Bearing in mind it's … [Read more...]
Doctor Who: The Lodger review
It’s sitcom time in Doctor Who this week, as the man in tweed moves into a flatshare with James Corden, plays a bit of football and embarrasses himself whilst trying to fit in with the humans. For those who watched Third Rock From The Sun or Mork & Mindy, this may seem eerily familiar. Still, … [Read more...]
Doctor Who Adventure Games: City Of The Daleks review
As if a whole new series of Doctor Who wasn’t enough value for your licence fee, the Beeb is also ladling out free video games this year. You can download the first ‘episode’ from the BBC Doctor Who site now, and three more will follow. It seems a bit churlish to launch into a detailed critique … [Read more...]
Doctor Who: Vincent and the Doctor review
As you’ve doubtless heard, this is The Richard Curtis Episode. The jokes about floppy fringes and stuttering write themselves, don’t they? But it would be a lot easier to hurl such abuse if the end result had been rubbish, and annoyingly it isn’t. Despite widespread grumbling about his last few … [Read more...]
Dork Review: BBC3 pilot, Pulse
The pilot episode of Pulse, the new BBC3 medical-supernatural horror that aired on Thursday, opens with a messy operation sequence. Ketchup flies, people scream, and if you’ve been scared since childhood of being awake during your own major surgery, it looks like this show will trigger that phobia … [Read more...]
Group Buying: The latest online shopping trend
A couple of months ago, I wrote about the various bargain designer clothes sites available online. Since then, another type of shopping has taken off in a big way, giving consumers the chance to take advantage of group buying for fun activities. Group buying (also known as mobdeals or groupons) … [Read more...]
