The SoundLab guide is now available

The new SoundLab site and guide is up now. It’s been a long time coming and it looks great. I hope that it will make a difference to organisations and groups and that it’ll be a useful resource. I can safely say that I had more fun from being a part of SoundLab than most other work I’ve been involved with.

The PowerUp 3.0 is pretty awesome

I only got to try this out for the first time the other day but it is pretty amazing. Not easy to fly though. Not easy at all, but fun. I really underestimated just how much space is needed to fly this thing. You need a fairly large flat park and you need a very windless day to do it too. Even the slightest gust of wind can take the thing as it’s so light.

The app is amazing though. You get real control with it. The only thing I’d have liked is a front facing camera on the airplane which sends real time footage back to the app. That would have been so cool. Even so it’s loads of fun to play around with, and when the wind dies down a bit I’ll get another chance to mess around with it.

So, Torchwood is coming to Big Finish

I suppose it shouldn’t be a big surprise. They’re producing excellent stories from just about everything else in the Doctor Who universe, so why not? I’m sure it’ll be brilliant and well worth a listen. However, I wasn’t always a massive Torchwood fan. It had its ups and downs. Some episodes were great, others I felt lost their way.

So I hope that Big Finish do a better and more consistent job of producing Torchwood.
