ALSO READ: XPro Drone Customer Reviews and Testimonials From Australia How to choose the best drone for yourself How do you choose the right drone to buy? You can start at the budget. All the drones featured in this review are drones for aerial photography and videography. These tend to be pricier than the other stunt drones. Some of the drones featured here are for beginners and others for professionals and there is yet another category that caters to both. Choose wisely by reading carefully and deciding wisely. Now the second question- what specific features should you be looking out for? You must decide beforehand, for example, if you want a drone that can automatically track you vs. one that needs to be directly controlled. Once you’ve decided this, look for a drone with the 'follow me' function like Tactic AIRDrone. If you are a beginner, you may also want to check out drones with automated flight modes which don’t require any real flying skills. Also do check if the drone you are buying works with your phone. You should also check out the local drone laws in your country. You may have to get your drone registered if it's too heavy, for example. Find out more before buying a drone, so that you don’t have to spend more on registration fees. Professional photographers, meanwhile, should look out for photo support features. Best Drone Camera in Australia - Conclusion Remember, the cheaper drones do a good job, but you should focus on what you want and make sure you get it in the price range of your choice. Apart from focusing on the camera, make sure that you take the drone’s battery into account as even the most expensive aerial photography drone cameras run out of power in about 30 minutes. Carrying an extra backup battery is the only option and you have to make sure that you factor this cost into the overall drone cost. Finally, look for a drone camera that’s really good if you are serious about your craft and want high- quality visual output. Contact Details Melissa support@jollofnews.com

Ontarians Bet Over $35 Billion in First Year of Legal Online Gambling

MarketJar

After just one year of legalization, Ontario is emerging as one of the largest igaming markets in North America with over 40 operators and 76 websites/apps available. According to Ontario Lottery and Gaming (OLG) VP Andrew Darley, the Ontario igaming market is possibly "number one in the world" in terms of revenue if the iGaming Ontario and OLG data are combined. Darley made the assertion at an Ontario-focused session at SBC Summit North America, explaining that OLG's figures are confidential but significant enough to challenge the world's largest markets. The industry earned nearly $1.4 billion in total gaming income and approximately $35.6 billion in total wagers during its first year. Last April, Ontario became the first Canadian province to launch a legal, regulated market. Since then, the province has accumulated over 1.6 million active player accounts on websites operated by more than 40 operators affiliated with iGaming Ontario. The transition from unregulated sites to the legal market appears to have gone easily; according to an Ipsos poll released Tuesday, 85% of respondents who bet in Ontario did so on licensed sites. This is a significant departure from before the market's debut, when 70% of users gambled on unregulated sites. According to iGaming Ontario, active players spent an average of $70 per month in the previous year. Basketball was the most popular sport to wager on, followed by soccer, football, hockey, and baseball. In the online casino category, slots accounted for 48% of all wagers, while table games with a live dealer accounted for nearly a third and computer-based table games accounted for the remainder. Canada’s New Online Casino & Sportsbook Among the companies looking to gain a meaningful presence in the Ontario online gambling market is NorthStar Gaming Holdings Inc. (TSXV:BET), a Canadian-owned gaming brand that owns and operates NorthStar Bets, an Ontario casino and sportsbook gaming platform that gives players a distinctly local user experience. Along with all of the most popular online casino games, the NorthStar Bets sportsbook offers real-time news, data, analysis, and scores directly in the betting environment. NorthStar Gaming launched Northstar Bets last June in partnership with Playtech PLC (LSE:PTECH) (OTC:PYTCY), a world-leading provider of B2C gambling technology. Under the partnership, Playtech became NorthStar ’s strategic software and services supplier, delivering its IMS platform, casino and live casino services to Ontario’s gambling market. Playtech also recently made a C$12.25 million strategic investment into Northstar Gaming to fuel expansion and growth across the Canadian market. The investment from Playtech, which resulted in a 15.5% ownership stake, completed Northstar ’s reverse takeover (RTO) financing for aggregate gross proceeds of C$22.33 million. NorthStar Gaming mixes a world-class casino and sportsbook experience with first-rate customer service - including live, on-call agents - and original sports news and gaming content. The company uses its strong Ontario roots to give it a distinct advantage: as a true local operator, it has its finger on the pulse of the province and adapts with them, not to them. NorthStar is dedicated to being a leader in the gaming business by achieving the highest security and integrity standards demanded by Canadians. Because of its collaborations and agreements with prominent media firms, including an omnichannel advertising and marketing services agreement with the Toronto Star creator Torstar Corporation, NorthStar is well-positioned to become a leader in the junction of sports media and sports wagering. NorthStar Bets operates in the province under an operating agreement with iGaming Ontario and is regulated by the Ontario Alcohol and Gaming Commission (OAGC). On May 8, NorthStar further expanded its reach through the acquisition of Slapshot Media Inc., a Canadian iGaming marketing and managed services company that specializes in providing managed services to Spreads.ca, an iGaming site owned and operated by the Abenaki Council of Wolinak. The purpose of the acquisition is to open up the Canadian market to the NorthStar brand outside of Ontario eventually, as well as to expand NorthStar 's addressable market dramatically through its association with Spreads.ca. The acquisition of Slapshot Media complements NorthStar 's existing online casino and sportsbook capabilities. Spreads.ca will not be available in Ontario and NorthStar Bets will remain NorthStar 's only online casino and sports book in the province. For more information about NorthStar Gaming Holdings Inc.

More Than Just a Room: How Airbnb Can Help You Travel Like a Local -- on a Budget

YourUpdateTV

Want to travel like a local, but on a budget? Airbnb is a great option for those looking to experience a destination authentically without breaking the bank. Recently, Airbnb Superhosts, Rhonda Voo and Eric Alan conducted a satellite media tour to talk about their experience being Airbnb hosts and how it helped them connect with people and have authentic experiences. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/6OnoHquTFMg In the current economic environment, people want to travel affordably. And after years of being isolated during the pandemic, they're looking for ways to connect with people and have authentic experiences. With the pandemic finally over, this summer is anticipated to be the biggest travel season of all time. Airbnb is expecting a record 300 million people to travel and host on Airbnb this year. To prepare, Airbnb is making the most extensive set of improvements to the platform ever, starting with the introduction of Airbnb Rooms, an all-new take on the original Airbnb. They’re also launching over 50 new features and upgrades that address top feedback from our guests and Hosts across the end-to-end Airbnb experience. Introducing Airbnb Rooms Airbnb began as a way to stay in a room in someone else’s home. This original idea of sharing a home offers two unique benefits. First, it’s more affordable for guests. More than 80% of private rooms are under $100/night, with an average rate of $67/night. Second, staying with a Host is a great way to meet someone new and experience the city like a local. In the current economic environment, people want to travel affordably. And after years of being isolated during the pandemic, they're looking for ways to connect with people and have authentic experiences. Now is the perfect time to stay in a room in someone else’s home. But for even more people to try it, they have to feel comfortable staying with a Host. Airbnb Rooms, an all-new take on the original Airbnb. Guests have told us that they want to know more about who they're staying with. Every Airbnb Room features a Host Passport, which helps guests get to know their Host before booking their stay. Airbnb has also created a Rooms category with over 1 million listings, redesigned filters and added new privacy features. 50+ new features and upgrades based on Hosts and Guests feedback: In preparation for an anticipated record-setting travel season, Airbnb is improving nearly every aspect of their service, here are some of the upgrades: Host Passport - Exclusive to Airbnb Rooms, the Host Passport helps you get to know your Host before booking your stay. Simply tap the Host Passport to view a larger photo and details Hosts have shared about themselves, including where they went to school, what they do for work, a fun fact about themselves, the amount of social interaction during the stay, and much more. Airbnb Rooms category - Airbnb Rooms are easy to discover, with a new category featuring a curated set of 1 million private bedrooms. Each listing includes access to shared spaces, such as the kitchen, living room, and backyard. Redesigned filters - Redesigned the “type of place” filter to make it easy to switch between Airbnb Rooms, entire homes, or all types of places. It’s simple to view the average price for each type of place with an enhanced price filter that updates based on your choice. New privacy features - Privacy is important. All Airbnb Rooms will clearly indicate if the bedroom door has a lock. The listing page also shows whether the bathrooms are shared or private, and whether people other than the Host will be in the home during your stay. To improve our service, Airbnb took a design-driven approach. They started by storyboarding the guest and Host journey - from sign up to checking out and created a blueprint of the experience - every screen, every policy, and every interaction with customer support mapped out. Then, analyzed millions of customer service tickets and mapped them across the journey. They also reviewed thousands of social media posts and spoke with hundreds of thousands of guests and Hosts about how to improve Airbnb.

The Publisher Desk and Intermarkets Launch Ringside Intel, the News Leader in Sports Entertainment and Combat Sports

The Publisher Desk

The Publisher Desk and Intermarkets, two leading integrated audience development and growth partners for digital publishers, today launched Ringside Intel, a news and information site for sports entertainment, mixed martial arts, professional wrestling, and combat sports. Ringside Intel brings together some of the top sources for sporting news and analysis – Wrestle Newz, MMA Frenzy, Fightline, and Caged Insider – under a single banner and backed by one of the most experienced teams to cover the WWE, UFC, AEW, Bellator, and more. “As the recent acquisition of WWE by Endeavor has shown, multiple fan bases continue to converge,” said Jeff Misenti, co-founder of The Publisher Desk. “By combining some of the most respected brands into one environment, Ringside Intel becomes the go-to destination for information, news, and exclusive content for any sport in the ring.” Ringside Intel is targeted at the estimated 1.2 billion fans worldwide of WWE, TNA, and AEW, along with another 700 million fans of UFC, Bellator, and other MMA promotions. While the popularity of pay-per-view events provides a thriving place in the market, most of the audience consumes combat content online. For example, according to data from the WWE, the company alone garnered more than 7.5 billion digital and social media views in January and February of this year, up 15% from the same time frame a year ago. The recent WrestleMania 39 had more than 500 million views and 11 million hours of video consumed over the two days of the event, a 42% increase over last year. The Publisher Desk partnered with Intermarkets to add Ringside Intel to its growing portfolio of sports, entertainment, and information sites, including the company’s flagship site, Sportsnaut, the most powerful name in sports news and information. “The Publisher Desk is a top-notch partner for our mission to give combat sports and sports entertainment fans the quality content they’ve come to expect from our brands,” said Intermarkets CEO and Founder Kevin Lucido. “This opportunity fits with Intermarkets’ strategy of expanding our businesses and harnesses The Publisher Desk’s marketplace power in generating expanded growth opportunities. Backed by the combined weight of Intermarkets and The Publisher Desk, these greater joint opportunities will grow Ringside Intel as fans’ destination for all things that punch, grapple, sweat, and bleed.” This launch comes a month after The Publisher Desk acquired Forever Blueshirts, the leading source of information about the New York Rangers, and six months after Intermarkets added Bounding Into Sports, a spin-off of the popular entertainment site Bounding Into Comics, which brings Bounding's signature brand of unmatched insights and in-depth coverage to the world of sports. Ringside Intel is not affiliated with the WWE, UFC, or any other professional sports and entertainment promotions.
