Welcome to the first live blog here at BGB.\u00c2\u00a0 As noted in my intro post yesterday, this is a new feature and today’s event is something of a trial run.\u00c2\u00a0 I hope this will turn into a regular part of our content, be it live blogging specific games or, as with today, just commenting on the live games as\u00c2\u00a0they happen while discussing anything else that comes to mind.<\/p>\n
One update from yesterday’s post is that I’ve found a way to insert the CoverItLive window into the website, as you’ll see below!\u00c2\u00a0 All you need to do is click on the button once the live blog has started and you will be able to follow the conversation.\u00c2\u00a0 Feel free to join in by submitting comments via the CoverItLive window (not the comments box at the bottom of the post).\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n
Once the live blog is over (probably 22.00 BST) then\u00c2\u00a0the window below will become an archive section where you can read back all of the comments.\u00c2\u00a0 So if you can’t\u00c2\u00a0make it tonight, or have to leave part way through, you can always come back and read it again.\u00c2\u00a0 I’ll re-write this post then to reflect it being\u00c2\u00a0‘after the event’\u00c2\u00a0.<\/p>\n
