1. www.timexsinclair.org: Time for a site upgrade?
Louis Florit · Mon, 6 Aug 2007 10:32:
I was looking at the www.timexsinclair.org website... It hasn't had a
refresh in many years. I was thinking of re-designing it under a
content management system like drupal to allow user contributions to
the site without me having to upload, add commenting features, rss
feeds, and other modern technology.
According to the logs, everyone's favorite part of the site is the
unsorted directory where there are PDF scans of most of the manuals
and documentation for the ts2068.
Since that website is really supported by the ts2068 list subscribers,
I would like to get your input on what you'd like to see on there.
Please send me your thoughts, ideas or comments; anything you got I
will consider.
Obviously this will take me some time to implement, but I'd like to
start chewing on ideas sooner than later.
Regards,
Louis
