Hungry in Leicester…
Last year, I wrote an article about the most common places for students to live in Leicester and a mini-summary of them all. As we almost reach the end of my 3rd year in Leicester, I thought I’d do the same except this time round about my top 3 affordable (as we are students, of […]
Women in FIFA?
Putting aside the current madness revolving around FIFA, Blatter & corruption, let’s talk about the video game for a bit. Earlier on this week, EA Sports revealed that international women’s teams will feature in the next iteration of the world’s most popular football simulation game FIFA 16. This caused a bit of a social media […]
What if I told you… you are allowed internet access during your exam?
As the title asks… what would you say? Well, believe it or not this may very well become a reality, at least according to OCR exam board chief Mark Dawe based on his comments on a BBC Radio 4 programme – http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-32531820. He argued that when students are taught in the classroom, students automatically resort to […]
Planes can’t land… planes can’t take off…
So I don’t know if anyone has read the news today, but apparently American Air planes couldn’t take off nor land at one point due to an app that pilots apparently use not functioning correctly.

eSports… a dream or the real deal?
So… eSports. Competition for large sums of money, by playing an ‘electronic sport’. Is this a real job? Can competitive gaming seriously be considered a proper sport? Millions of dollars up for grabs on a regular basis, broadcasted to hundreds of thousands of spectators both through mediums such as Twitch.TV & TV as well as […]
Generic Top Level Domains… but not as you know them.
So according to the news, Google have purchased the “.app” gLTD for over $25M (roughly around £16M). If you don’t know what a gLTD is, it’s similar to a “.com” or “.co.uk” suffix on web domains. So now, technically nobody can own a “.app” domain without technically being sold one or rather being given permission […]
