Just a bit of fun here if you're broadband connection can handle it! The Periodic Mega Table - all 118 elements on one page! http://www.periodicvideos.com/mega_table.htm'>http://www.periodicvideos.com/mega_table.htm Or bit more of a normal version here http://www.periodicvideos.com/ Enjoy!

Finished now... it has been abig hit with over a million video views already! Amazing how many people, even the non-science minded, have reacated very positively! http://www.periodicvideos.com/ Sodium is the most watched so far, but I've had people from as far afield as Hungary say they have watched all 118!

A video about every element! http://www.periodicvideos.com/

Hi, just wanted to share my new science project which is underway... making a video for EVERY element on the periodic table. I've filmed most of them, just have a big editing job to do now! As you can see, 10 down and about 108 to go. http://www.periodicvideos.com/ Trying to encourage anyone with an interest to subscribe to the YouTube channel so they can see each one as its posted... it's free and easy, just helps me let people know as each one is done. http://www.youtube.com/periodicvideos (then click subscribe) Cheers for reading. Any feedback more than welcome! PS: I'll pop the table into the "periodic table forum" here when it's finished, just wanted to show you guys in its infancy!

A sclerochronologist (!?) on how crossing the Atlantic gave him an insight in geological time.

Nice ones!

Well, I have seen them at Wembley AND in Japan, so they do get around! I can't explain it and I don't know why, but in real life they just sound amazing... with all due respect to them as musicians, I think they must have very good sound crew! Oh, and I happened to use Starlight for a recent short film about scientists, funnily enough

Muse are brilliant And seriosusly, 10 times better live!

here's a starter...

A portrait of my brain... All in the name of psychology research of course!!!

Cameron Alexander on his recent talk (and subseqent paper in Nature) on sythetic biology. He also talks a little about presentation style at the big conferences. http://www.test-tube.org.uk/videos/pages_cameron_bald_guy.htm

Do scientists travel on planes too much, flying around the world to attend meetings? Check out this video about a scientist who chooses not to fly! http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=UPlt3yVPwCQ

Too risky or a great way to kit our your lab? This is what one scientists did... Any thoughts?

For anyone who has been through a PhD viva - or is about to go through one! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8IPs-nHqXM

... using only a stick. And more tree "wisdom" from Markus at

Einstein was not unique at all... Here is his identical twin who instead opted for chemistry:

Great demonstration of supercritical fluids by acclaimed chemistry professor Martyn Poliakoff Would be nice to have one of these machines to impress people at parties!?

I did consider launching the videos in new windows, but deliberately did not as it is something that annoys me when I am using websites (maybe because I always have about 100 tabs and windows open on my screen and the last thing I want is another one I was not expecting!). Guess I opted for the user-choice argumnent. However I see both arguments... maybe I need to reconsider! Anyone else have an opinion on this?

I've made 100 films about science... and counting! Here they are presented in the best (and geekiest) way I could think of! http://www.test-tube.org.uk/morestuff/periodic/page.htm By the way, I'm curious to know which element you feel most inclined to click on?

in the film he says a millionth of a millimeter, not meter... does that still make him wrong?

Just how small is a nanometer? Liked this guys analogy with the aircraft carrier... anyone got a better one?

Discovering "the fountain of youth" in a sewage outlet behind a hospital.

Recently filmed with a programme whereby university science staff try to get involved with primary school education to inspire students as early as possible... seems to be an increasing trend in this part of the world. http://www.test-tube.org.uk/videos/pages_janice_school_visit.htm
