well this is new!

Informative and short but I prefer to read the articles myself rather that watch a sum up, but I guess it will be useful incase I miss anything important.

Would links in the description back to the covered stories be something you would use?

 

[Sneezeguard]

yes that would be very useful

 

[Daystar Clarion]

Nice work, Mr Butts.

Nice work.

A lot of improvement over the first couple of shows.

 

[Panorama]

Yeah, probably my favourite so far. Good work, i have read all of these articles but i still find it interesting. Please keep it up!

 

[ninja_girl]

Well this is new to my eyes!

I think I could get very used to watching this every week.

Nice job guys!

 

[Scarim Coral]

So this is like the serious version to the late ENN?
Either way this will be handy news summary if I missed any news link due to work.

This looks to be a rather nice new addition - he looks nothing like I expected though.

Oh one correction though; its "The Advertising Standards Authority" not "An Advertising Standards Authority." We only have the one of them.

 

[GeorgW]

A big improvement, I really like the background and Mr Butts looks a lot more comfortable in front of a camera. Looking forward to more of these!

 

[SecondPrize]

Good stuff. My own fault I had my hopes shattered when you failed to rap the news.

 

[Saxnot]

yeah, i'd definately keep posting the links, i missed the thief article and it being right below the video was very convenient.

 

[mexicola]

Assassin's Creed 3 and Neal Stephenson links below the video are leading to different articles.

 

[Steve Butts]

Thanks for the feedback, all. This is obviously something new, so we're prepared to endure some growing pains. Justin and Tito helped to shape it into something that I feel is pretty slick and attractive.

I had at one point intended to do an actual rap, but cooler heads prevailed.

You need a catchphrase for when you sign off...

Something awesome...

Ah, that'll do.

I actually think the more serious approach would be welcome. Because then you'd have this as an overall wrapup of all of the news, then the podcast as a more comedic take. We all do miss ENN but I think the podcast has sort of taken over that role now.

We miss it too, BUT! We do CheckPoint now, over at PATV, which is basically the same thing:

Oh don't worry I watch Checkpoint as well and so do most of my friends Are you allowed to say why ENN was stopped here? It seemed rather abrupt since it was so popular.
