The game, as the name suggests makes you draw pictures of a certain word, a bit like Pictionary but on your mobile phone. Once you’ve drawn your chosen word it sends it to a friend to guess. For every correct guess you receive coins based on the complexity of the word and these can be traded for new colours or ‘bombs’ which get rid of all of the letters not relevant to the word you are guessing.

It’s a great game and funny too, as you try to decipher what the other people have drawn.

Draw Something is available now from the App Store and Google Play Store; there is a free version with adverts or an ad free version for £1.24, bargain!

Certain websites offer essays to read which have been written by and marked by teachers and can give new students a very good idea of what will be expected of them in their work. They can not only help the student to understand better how to set out their work, but are also another mode of studying as they are genuine, information packed articles which will educate the student.

Students can see past essays which have been critiqued to show the pitfalls which can easily be fallen into, highlighting scenarios to avoid, making sure that the student is reminded to keep on the subject they are studying and not waste precious time going off at a tangent and talking about unnecessary things. There are also proofreading and editing services on offer so that the final result is as polished and well written as it possibly can be.

Most of the innards have been upgraded including a quad-core A5X processor, a better Retina screen and up to 64GB of internal memory.

In addition to the beefed up specs the iPad also has access to the iCloud and App Store where you can download just about anything you can imagine.

I was hoping that Samsung or one of the other manufacturers would release a decent competitor to the iPad, but I think that Apple has it right this year and can’t see anything coming close to the new iPad.

Will I buy the new iPad? I’m really tempted, but it is still a lot of money and I’m really not sure that I’d get enough use out of it.

I use this app quite a lot when I’m at work when my colleagues are talking about what programs they watched or are coming soon. I do a quick search and the app will show the listings for the next seven days and if I fancy watching it, I just click on record and it records to my Sky box at home when it’s on.

This app is also good if you’re out and about as you often see adverts, whether you’re shopping or having a few beers in the pub and by the time you get home you’ve forgotten what it was. With this app you’re just a couple of clicks away from recording it.

Obviously I would love to have Sky Go app on my Android phone but my LG Optimus 3D isn’t compatible at the moment, so the Sky+ app will have to do for now.

I also ordered a set of Turtle Beach X12 headphone to go with it and have been trying them out today. Here are my first impression of both the DSS and X12 together.

Set Up

The DSS is easy to set up, simply plug the optical cable from your Xbox to the processor and plug the headphones 3.5mm jack and USB into the front and its ready. You can control the volume and bass from the DSS as well as turn the surround sound processor on and off. The X12’s also have a bass boost as well as game volume and chat volume and a mic on/off switch.

Sound

The sound is amazing, in Battlefield 3 I can now hear where different sounds are coming from and whether someone is sneaking up behind me and the crowd chats in Fifa also sound great.

I turned the bass boost down on my headphones and used the bass from the processor as having both on is a bit overpowering.

I also tried the DSS with my old XLC headphones and it still sound good, but to be honest the X12’s are far better.

I would definitely recommend the Turtle Beach DSS for anyone who wants to experience surround sound without annoying the neighbours and although it sounds good even with a set of cheap headphones I’d also recommend getting a decent pair to begin with.

After doing a search on the internet I came across a website called razorlab.co.uk, they offer laser cutting services in a range of different materials and software that you can upload you files, get an instant quote and order with a couple of clicks of the mouse.

To upload your design, a couple of steps must be taken so that the Razorlab software can recognise the parts, the website has a number of handy tutorials to help you get your design right including design tips for Adobe Illustrator, Corel Draw and Inkscape.

Once you have your design how you want it, simply upload it onto the website, choose the material that you want to use and how thick and the software will give you an instant quote.

The router templates that I uploaded worked out a just over £50 on 5mm thick acrylic which isn’t that bad as I’ll be making lots of these unusually shaped boxes in the future.

Why not check out razorlab.co.uk today and get designing your own stuff today.

Now we use the internet to do all of our Christmas shopping and together with saving money, we don’t have to trawl around in the cold on a busy high street.

The internet is also a great place to get inspiration for presents and has many unique shops selling great stuff that you wouldn’t of even thought of, making Christmas day a great experience as someone opens there novelty gift.

We have done all of our Christmas shopping now and even with the cost of delivery have saved money.

I know the internet isn’t great for the high street shops which are struggling at the moment, but is it really worth standing in a queue for an hour to get served or trawling around umpteen different shops looking for a place that has what you want.

Personally I like to point, click and wait for it to come in the post.

The graphics are a little better than the last one (on the demo anyway) but not a lot of difference really. The two major changes that I’ve noticed are the new defensive controls and the player impact engine. Both seem to add more realism to the game, but can also become frustrating if you need to get a result.

Can’t wait to get the new teams and stats, and with the special edition you also get ultimate team player cards, so I’ll have to give that a go.
