Desktop Richie

[aussie1st]

I know you guys maybe sick and tired of hearing Richie's voice but this new innovation by channel 4 is awesome. Its a cricket updater with Richie animating around your desktop. I saw it used on the Channel 4 tv coverage but can't find the weather thing they were showing.

Updates a bit too slow for me, I prefer just to keep the skysports cricketscorecard screen open.

I'm not really using it as an updater. If I wanted that I would go cricinfo but I would be watching the game so no need I just like seeing Richie in cartoon form walking around my screen.

oh
that drives me crazy

Actually it's not a new innovation. This is the second or third year of Desktop Richie. I love it! I never need updates because I can just switch on the TV!

Yea i noticed it said version 2. Obviously a Aussie like me isn't going to know about it.
