What is BWA all about?
|
You may have noticed some web pages bearing logos indicating that they were made with Microsoft
software, or Made on AppleMacs, or whatever. Well, this page is designed to be a focus point for all
those of us who use our Amigas to create our Web Pages - let's show the rest of the World just how
good this machine really is, and how widely used it is!
It is my intention that this page will not only show the World that the Amiga is still around, but will also
contain useful information for fellow Amigans as to what software there is available for Web work - be
it browsing or authoring - and also more general Internet-related activities (new, email and generally getting
onto the Internet in the first place).
If you have any particular pieces of software you would like to recommend, then please let me have
some details - what it is, where you can get it, how much, what it does and why you recommend it - I will
do my best to collate all submissions so that we can have a complete picture! However I
am NOT interested in comments along the lines of "xxx is great because I like it"
or "yy is rubbish." - that doesn't help anyone!
Of course, for this campaign to be a success, I need your help, both in the form of suggestions,
and, more importantly, by spreading the word! To that end, I would like to suggest that you might like
to create a link to this page. Here are some suggestions for how to link to this site.

Mailing List Launched
|
There is now a mailing list specifically for the BWA campaign to help you
keep in touch with the latest developments and also to discuss Amiga
Internet related topics with other users. Find out
more details.

Viewing Problems?
|
Oh, by the way - if you are using a graphical browser but not seeing any graphics, then it's because your browser doesn't support
PNG - the new Internet graphics standard. However, there's no need ot panic - there
are many ways you can get round this, and in the meantime, you are not loosing out, because
this site is designed to be used equally well with or without graphics.
|
And Finally...
|
Got any spare CPU power? If so,then you might like to consider joining with many many fellow Amigans in putting those spare
CPU cycles to a collective use, in the RSA Secret Key Challenge - it's perfectly legal, and just imagine how good it would feel
if the Amiga team were to win! Pop along to the RC5 Amiga Team's page and have a look.
(Whilst this is not in any way related to the "Built With Amiga Software" campaign, it does help to raise the profile of the Amiga.)

Thanks For Dropping By...
|
Well, that's all for now. Thank you for dropping by.
I do hope you support the campaign, and perhaps you'll call again sometime - I certainly intend to keep the pages up-to-date with all the latest Amiga Software information.
