The Pi User

Tue Jun 19, 2012 9:47 am

Hi all,

You may (or may not) remember me floating the idea of a magazine throwback website; I think it was probably forgotten and dwarfed by some of the other excellent fan sites.

Anyway, we've launched our site today and have posted our first tutorial (of many!). We'll see how it goes and we're open to suggestions; we do have a few ideas brewing behind the scenes and we'd be delighted if anybody wants to write for us.

Enough from me, the site is available at http://www.thepiuser.co.uk, I hope you find it of some use!

Regards,

Phil

One thing though, you may want to ask Liz if it's okay to use the RPi logo. I believe its use is reserved for official sites?

It links back to here, so we're happy with it (although it'd be cool if you could replace it with one with the (r) symbol - ping me if you want a png version).

Thanks for the seal of approval Liz. Logo updated as requested.

Thanks everyone, we had just over 700 unique visitors to our site today. We hope we'll be of some use to you!

Aside from our code formatter playing up, our launch went pretty smoothly. :)
