My Four Point Plan to Get Leicester City Into the Play-Offs

From a position joint top of the Championship and at short odds to be promoted automatically to the Premier League, Leicester City have won one game in 14 (all competitions) and now lie in 8th position, two points outside of the play-offs.

Although automatic promotion is now impossible, the lottery of the play-offs is still to play for and I have the perfect plan for Leicester City to get there...

Google Street View Hyperlapse

A San Fransisco digital company, Teehan+Lax Labs, have created a nifty app to create a 'hyperlapse' (video technique using timelapse and a moving camera) using the data from Google StreetView.  It's very clever and inventive, the original files that created it are available to the public (who know how to use it) and it's very addictive!

I've been trying to tour around Lincoln Cathedral using the Hyperlapse app.

Why Nigel Pearson Should Not Be Sacked

This afternoon Leicester City play Brighton and Hove Albion.  Leicester have dropped from 2nd place to 7th place in the space of 11 matches, during which they have won only 6 points from a possible 33, and their match today puts them against the 6th place team, just two points ahead of them.  If they lose and go five points behind the ply-offs, you can call it game over. Massive.

During this bad run of form, one of the worst in recent memory for the Foxes, fans have called for the manager's head, in a recent online poll showing over half of fans thinking he should not be in the job.  However, I firmly believe the owners should stick with their man even if he doesn't bring them the promotion they desire this season.

Update...

It's been almost four months since I last posted a blog (terrible, I know) but I've got a couple of good excuses.  I now have a bun in the oven and also a permanent job to provide for said bun!

The Beauty of Second Screen Viewing

Second screen viewing has become commonplace with the advent of social media and portable technology.  Services such as Twitter and Zeebox combine with smartphones and tablets to allow entertainment to be multiplied onto a second screen; not just your television but also your portable device.

For example, the Zeebox app is to be used whilst watching television and gives real-time information about locations, people and topics that are included on that show right in your hands.  Channel 4 is also a great user of Twitter hashtags in their television shows so that you can follow along on the social media platform to see what others are saying about it.

Today I've found a development in this idea using the iPad and a BluRay disk and it has excited me a lot!
