The v2 Journal

by **Adam D** on Tue Jan 31 2012, 13:08

Members,

We are pleased to announce that as part of 606v2's continued growth, we have launched a new website to try and get us more recognition from professional bodies and potential members.

The purpose of this site is to help us attract new members and make 606v2 into an even bigger arena for discussion than it already is.

Over the last few weeks, we have recruited a team of writers to attend events and write featured articles for us. These have now been published on our new site

www.v2journal.com

All of the features lead back here for discussion and we are still trying to get some sections up and running. The reason we have launched with some sections empty is that you will be able to see the work we are doing and the direction (and type of article) we are heading in for the journal. Hopefully it will inspire you to want to join the writing team and bolster some of the empty sections.

We are always looking for features - so if you want to join, please let the admin team know.

For now - please have a look around the site and give us some feedback on what we have so far.

Final thing - tell people about it!

Well done with this site, it's a great read.

I'd be happy to contribute on any number of sports I find myself watching. Football, NFL, NBA, wrestling etc.

You are ace Adam.

Seriously good job. Extremely impressive.

by **Adam D** on Tue Jan 31 2012, 13:51

I am particularly interested in writers who want to do entertainment features (gig reviews, film reviews, features on bands etc)

by sodhat on Tue Jan 31 2012, 14:03

I'd be happy to contribute something on bands, I need an excuse to listen to more new music

I actually think that would be the title of my first, and only, article, Jeff.

EDIT: I was laughing at the previous comments, not at the website. I think that's triffick. clap

I think you need the unbiased expertise of Alessandro Ciambella on the F1 section. My unbiased, informative articles could bring a lot of positive attention to this fantastic site.

People will be reading from Monza and beyond to see what important information I will be disseminating to my loyal audience!

What do you think? Am I in?

Now now, I've heard good things about the pies served at Falcons home games, surely there's a food review there Wink

by **Adam D** on Wed Feb 01 2012, 15:34

If you are interested in writing up Falcons games, let me know.

by Luckless Pedestrian on Wed Feb 01 2012, 15:35

I can write reviews of albums that were released forty-odd years ago if you want.

No?

by **Adam D** on Thu Feb 02 2012, 15:41

Have you looked at the site?

by Guest on Thu Feb 02 2012, 15:43

do you want some yay or nay?

by **Adam D** on Thu Feb 02 2012, 16:05

Thank you for offering to help out but we have quite a few cricket writers already.

However, if you wanted to work on some of the entertainment articles, we could do with some help on those

by GG on Thu Feb 02 2012, 21:17

Looked like a good site! Then I saw the wrestling section vomit

Funny to mock the Wrestling section when two of the major cricket posters often post on it...
