Formula 1 offered up a sensational season in 2011, with a veritable platter of rule changes that worked better in practice than anyone could have hoped.

It's that time of year again, when the fabulous roster of daily writers we have here on Sidepodcast faces a bit of a shakeup. You've read the great stuff being produced, perhaps you've even attempted a one-off daily of your own, but have you thought about doing it on a more permanent basis?
Sidepodcast is a vast site with lots of brilliant content to see, and a great community to chat with, but at first glance it can be quite overwhelming. Never fear! Alex Andronov, or Giggles as he is more properly known, is here with an amazing demo video for getting the most out of Sidepodcast.
This past weekend, Mr C and I ventured on a mini break to the coast, but as we are never ones to be off duty, we took the opportunity to test out some photography workflows on the go.
