For the past two years, I have been looking into my digital crystal ball and predicting what will be big in the digital world. In 2017 I got 8/10 (I was way off because Twitter didn't die and still hasn't) and before I get into the digital trends for 2019, let's see what happened in 2018 and if it means I can start predicting World Cup…
My first geeky must see movie is set to drop on 14 February 2019. Alita: Battle Angel was a project that James Cameron (Titanic and Avatar) put on the back burner when he immersed himself in the blue alien world (Again, Avatar, keep up!). While he had most of the script written he wasn't ready to take the movie forward. Robert Rodriquez approached him about the…
January ain't even over and already the internet of 2019 has delivered. From taking a long hard look at how much you have changed in 10 years to being dumb AF driving while blindfolded while also streaming it on social and more in 2019's first edition of Bytesized. ⌛The 10-year challenge So how have you aged grown?

For the last week I've found every excuse and reason not to write this blog post. Ironically, in those excuses lies the lesson that 2018 taught me. I've lost my voice [caption…
By now you likely know that during the course of 2018 I’ve been working as the Desk Host for Overwatch Contenders Europe. The competition has three seasons and each “regular” season is roughly four and a half to 5 weeks. The studio we film out of is in Kiev, Ukraine. Blizzard takes really good care of us, putting us in two apartments. There are 5 talent…
My name is Sam, though I'm also known as Tech Girl and this is my little space on the internet. My friends and I share our love for all things gaming, geek and gadgets here. I'm a South African Esports host and content creator. Links to all my various platforms are here on the blog. I'm a giant nerd, own far too many pairs of Converse and secretly wish I could be one of the X-Men!
