I think your error is that you use the class name in your package name.

In your manifest you wrote package="com.giggsey.MyFirstApp" and also in your receiver. This would mean that the full name of your receiver is com.giggsey.MyFirstApp.MyFirstApp, but I belive it is just com.giggsey.MyFirstApp.

Exchange com.giggsey.MyFirstApp in your manifest with com.giggsey that sould work if I guess right.

And also this:

package com.giggsey;

import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.util.Log;

public class MyFirstApp extends BroadcastReceiver {
    private static final String TAG = "MyFirstApp";

    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        Log.i(TAG, "Intent recieved: " + intent.getAction());
    }
}
