A new app from Google brings you the latest advances in mobile technology; 360� spherical story telling.

'Google Spotlight Stories', brings engineers and critically-acclaimed filmmakers together to create 3D and 2D, 360 degree cinema-quality video with sound sphere audio, and sensor fusion techniques.

Using the accelerometers on your iPhone, you can enter into the world of the story with the ability to look around in any direction.

At the moment, Google Spotlight Stories movie theater features 4 stories; Help (free for a limited time), Duet, Buggy Night, and Windy Day.

'Help' directed by Justin Lin, is the first live-action Spotlight Story. In the middle of downtown Los Angeles a unexpected meteor shower hits the streets of Chinatown. The next unfolding events sees a young women trying desperately to escape.

While the 360 degree video is cool, you can look anywhere and see the whole place as if you're really there, I don't know if it's really great for story telling. Most of the time you're just moving around trying to follow with the story - because the story is moving. It can actually be quite dizzying.

So, cool technology, definitely check it out, but I don't think I'm sold on the idea. I'd still prefer to watch movies on a TV or in a normal cinema - without all the twisting and turning.

-> Google Spotlight Stories is free to download, available from the iTunes App Store.

Stephen Colbert still has a couple of months to go until The Late Show With Stephen Colbert begins on September 8th 2015 on CBS. In the meantime, Stephen and his team has been keeping busy with all the plaining of the studio, the show, and other fun material for fans like; Podcasts, web videos, an App, and more.

The latest from Stephen Colbert is a new choose-your-own-adventure style story game titled, "Escape From The Man-Sized Cabinet."

Stephen Colbert jokes in a 'press release' on the Late Show website:

�It�s no wonder people love Escape from the Man-Sized Cabinet so much. It�s the world�s greatest Stephen Colbert simulator� unless my whole life is some kind of elaborate Matrix-like virtual reality.� 

Escape From The Man-Sized Cabinet is a text based story game with some cartoon images. The story begins with Stephen getting trapped inside a man-sided cabinet, like the title suggests. It's then up to the player to choose from different options as to what Stephen will do next and how the adventure will unfold. However, while there are different options to choose from - you'll end up picking the option the game wants you too in order to progress in the story.

All Colbert fans (and everybody else) should definitely check out the story game on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert website.
