ROUND-UP: A CALL TO ARMS

Well now... this was the week that Digi2000 went all YouTube-y. To be honest, we're still finding our feet with it - so all the videos to date have been a bit of an experiment. 

But... we're learning much, and enjoying it along the way, and - frankly - it's easier to do with a broken arm than writing. And we're actually pretty pleased with how our Virtual Reality mini-doc/rant thing turned out. So, thanks for bearing with us.

Rest assured, our written content isn't going anywhere ever, but we'd love to hear your opinions on Digi2000, and the sort of stuff you might want to see if we carry on doing videos. Or maybe you don't want us to do videos at all. Or maybe you do. Or maybe you have something else you want to say. Email us at digitiser2000@gmail.com or use the contact form - all feedback is appreciated, especially now as we stand, legs akimbo, poised to enter this site's second year.

As we say below, we need your help in getting the word out about Digitser2000. To mark our first anniversary, Mr Biffo is appearing at the Play Expo in Manchester on Saturday, October 10th. Let us know if you're thinking of coming along, and we'll look into arranging a mini meet-up/drink somewhere.

In the meantime, click through for all the goodness you might've missed over the past couple of weeks. It's not a bad haul of stuff.

PLEASE READ: WE NEED YOUR HELP!

If you like Digitiser2000, and enjoy reading it, and wish to avoid the emotional burden of knowing you've contributed to Mr Biffo and his charming family having to live in a skip, you can help support the site by becoming a Patreon donor, or hitting up the PayPal button. Our legion of generous and lovely sponsors get special rewards, some of which you can find out about here (they include videos, The Man's Daddy's Joke Book, and wet kisses - and we're looking into offering something extra special for those who've been with us long term).

In all seriousness, Digi obviously takes time and money to run - all our review copies come out of our sponsor fund, as does the web hosting, and other bits and bobs (such as, this week, a nice microphone, so our videos don't sound like they're being recorded in a lavatory). Plus we have to fit it around our day jobs. Which, when you're freelance, is an even more difficult justification.


Every little helps support the effort it takes to write and run the site. We know life is expensive, so if you can't - or won't - help support us with money, we'd really appreciate you sharing our features and spreading the word. 


Digitiser2000 doesn't have the marketing budget of the big sites (or any marketing budget) - and we're reluctant to go online and plug ourselves (matron) - so we rely on the word of mouth of our readers. If the site is to develop in ever more sexy ways, it ideally needs to grow. We need you for that.

We genuinely appreciate, and are properly touched, by everyone who has helped us out to date.

The most sincere thanks!

Hey, I just thought I'd share a few thoughts. I'm your classic web user; I read all of this site (and others, some gaming, some entirely not), I visit most days but I never get involved. I never comment. Except here. Other sites have huge comment sections but on this site, my favourite of all sites (really), for some reason you don't. I hope that doesn't reflect traffic but I suspect that, sadly, it does. I'm not a long-time,ex-teletext fan (never had teletext, or often a telly, when I was younger), I'm just a Jonny-come-lately but I think it's just great that you're offering to meet/drink with your readers. I won't be there (I live in Devon and have 2 young kids) but I hope you have the long, rambling, very drunken , highly enjoyable evening that I imagine we would all enjoy. Have a pint for me! And on me if I get round to contributing. Ahoy
