For a Friday, the TechRadar team were decidedly chipper today.

The same couldn't be said for our sister website T3 who were bleary eyed after its celebration of all things tech, the T3 Gadget Awards.

The smell of alcohol on their collective breath must have been contagious, however, as Editor (news) Patrick was drunk with excitement after he managed to get out of Microsoft that the company wants Surface in the UK this year.

But then again, he was also excited after speaking to the founder of Digg Kevin Rose, and asking him, among other things, about his scariest moment on the site.

And it wasn't just Patrick who was in a tis, as Gareth cried tears of joy that China has started producing OLED TVs, mainly because he wants one right now.

Another object of desire this Friday was a yacht that costs just 22 Euro. Well it does if you make a mistake on an online auction site.

Blu-ray had a bit of an up and down day in the news. Netflix sullied the format, saying it hasn't been that profitable for them, while Microsoft deny it is to produce a Blu-ray deck for the Xbox 360… again.

There were also birthday celebrations today as Amazon UK turned 10, while The Pirate Bay were celebrating as its site won a court case in Italy – a court case of such significance that you might one day view the story in ITN's massive online news archive. But only if you are a university student.

Have a great weekend and do remember to keep popping back to your favourite tech news site.
