It’s all go on Atomic! This week we’ve launched another new forum – following on from the 14 we created last week. ‘Direct Deals’ is a bit like Trademart, but it’s exclusively for retailers to give you special deals, directly.

It’s already off to a nice start, with some cool stuff offered up by new friends of Atomic. Check it out, you never know what bargains you’ll find.

The Private Message (PM) system took a giant leap forward this week too. Dan coded us up the PM Address Book, and User Directory. It’s a very neat little tool for regular PM users.

And… Atomic Live is set in stone for October the 20th! It’ll be at the Sydney Showground and we promise it’ll be even better than the last Live. We’ll be launching a special Live site soon with more info. You’re going to want to be there. Save the date!
