Those folks over at the Melbourne Dissecta gaming gab-fest are celebrating two years of outstanding video game related seminars – As part of the second anniversary, this month's seminar tells the story of a Melbourne designed handheld gaming console.

5 Best Practices for Smartphone Support
Speakers include Jefferson Harcourt, Managing Director of Grey Innovation, the makers of the DigiBLAST, and Grant Davies, head of Endgame Studios, developers of several fine action games for the console. What a DigiBLAST! includes a Q&A session and complimentary networking after-show drinks. Dissecta is also putting together three massive prize packs to giveaway on the night to celebrate its two year anniversary featuring games from Vivendi, Atari, Activision, Mindscape, Red Ant Enterprises, and more. Tim Richards, founder and convenor of Dissecta, reflects that "It is a great privilege to be able to put on a forum like Dissecta and hear from so many interesting speakers from across the video game industry over the past two years. We are very appreciative of the support Dissecta has received since starting, from the video game industry, from speakers, and audiences, and we hope to be able to continue Dissecta as a grass roots initiative well into the future. A special thank you must go out to our volunteers for making each show happen, and to our host venue, the GDAA's Australian Games Innovation Centre (the Academy of Interactive Entertainment's Presentation Room)."
