There was a thread saying that the world will end on DECEMBER 21, 2012.

I think, it should be Dec 21, 2007.

Dear, this forum is maintained by Jasubhai Digital Media and Raaabo is/was just an admin of the forum.
I think no major change will happen to the mag and forum if 'Digit' is published through any other company. Let's see what happens...
