One More Thing: Twitter looking to reality TV show
Plus, celeb overload
Twitv - Basically you don't exist on the web unless you are offering up your own videos - just ask Bieber - so it comes as no surprise that Twitter is considering its own reality TV series. We can't wait to see which Hollywood Star will make a guest appearance as the fail whale. [CNET]
Conical bravo - Talking of live telly on the internet, Madonna fans are in for a treat as her Paris Olympia concert is to be streamed live on LoveLive's YouTube channel. She'll no doubt be singing Like a Virgin Media Superfast Broadband, and This Used To Be My Playbook. [PR]

Olympic lasers - Apparently you're not allowed to be a British writer and not mention the Olympics at least once in every article, so how about the news that scientists from BAE Systems have been helping out our modern pentathletes with their high tech lasers. Even nicer – they have offered out the testing device to any other team that wants a go. Aww. [PR]

3D printing is awesome/awful - You know how we always tell you how technology is neither evil nor good – merely a tool for humanity? Well here's 3D Printing in action to produce a homemade mixtape (yay) or, alternatively, a working gun (boo). With great 3D printing power… [Slashgear/Engadget]
Firefoxy - Mozilla has announced that Firefox Add-on downloads have crossed the 3 billion mark. Apparently more than 85 per cent of users have addons installed with an average of five per user. Stat-tastic.[PR]
