• Back on April 30, 1997, we made our initial steps into the cyber-world — We called ourselves “Drinks Askew” with just one purpose in mind — Post and maintain drinking games for “Clerks”, “Mallrats” and “Chasing Amy”. 10 years later, the games have been expanded to include the first 5 of Kevin’s films, and still remain on this site. A few short months later, we relaunched as the site you’ve come to know us as now: “NewsAskew”. Today, April 30th, 2007, we proudly celebrate the completion of our 10th year as a part of the now extensive internet world of View Askew.

NewsAskew Version #1

NewsAskew Version #2

Over the last 10 years, our site has been through many designs, some of which you see above. This July, when the “News Askew” name and mission officially turn 10, we’re pleased to announce that we’ll again relaunch –We’ll unveil a brand new design of the website, which is now shaping up to be the best one yet. You’ll find the most intelligent, accurate news archive search ever, containing all 10 years, every story we’ve ever produced. Simpler access to our vast library of references, files, games, and more. The new News Askew will offer improved communications tools, allowing you to take a more active role in the news that’s reported here. Look for some surprise new interactive features, as well. Portability has also been a big focus of the relaunch — We’re hoping that News Askew will be as beautiful on your home computer as it is on your cell phone or other portable device. By far,it’s our most ambitious effort yet, but also the most exciting.

All of that, coming THIS JULY, when NEWS ASKEW celebrates its 10TH BIRTHDAY on the web. We couldn’t be happier to continue to bring you your almost-daily fix of all that’s new and exciting in the world of View Askew and beyond. Thanks for sticking with us so far. We hope to see you back soon, and especially look forward to this July. Thanks to ALL OF YOU for your continued support.
