new project started :)
« on: November 05, 2011, 01:41:04 AM »
hey guys,

i just wanted to let you know, that a new small Amiga project has started. Well just a website.

tata: http://amigamap.com

Out of a discussion on a1k.org came the idea that it would be helpful to   know, how many Amiga computer are still active world wide. The result   is now Amigamap.com.  

It would be great if you contribute to the project thanks

If you find a bug or have suggestions or whatever. Msg me

I have several Amigas plus a Sam460. Am I supposed to register each one separately?

It's the only way and you have to use a different email address for each machine.

Not the best method by any means. :-)

you should also be able to add the serial number of the machine, picture and info about the owner.... so it get a bit more serious. you can get a few good tips on how it is done over at http://c64preservation.com/

right now its like this. i will update this today, that you can register more in one time.

no, you use just one email. After you registered the first machine and confirmed it via email, you can login and register the rest of your machines without the need to confirm them any more :)

Good work.
It would be interesting to see all amiga compatible systems (i.e. morphos machines or aros ones too).
bye!:)

not directly, we don't see there how many machines are in each country. And also how many from each type of Amiga.

tonight goes more options (selectable specs) for each system in the account page online and will be shown also in a separate graph.

this map isnt going to contain any viable information except overall polularity estimations.
i dont even know how many amigas do i currently own, evcen if i count spare parts and disassembled systems out. and im not going to fill technical info for any of them, thats well beyond what i care or have time for.

and this is all about. to have a clou. It is not possible to do this 100% correct. But we are not millions out there, so it give us a small overview.

there is no need to do this. it is a plus not more.

guys try not to find something negative because of whatever, also when i can life well with critic. Like i said, we are not millions out there. And nobody force anybody to do it. BUT it would be cool if the most would contribute.  ..maybe this helps also some company's to produce new hardware for the classic ones. I don't know.

Ok, interesting project. I just added a couple of my systems.

Found a slightly annoying thing (bug?) too. Seems I can only update information about one system at a time. When I press one of the 'Update' buttons, the information for the other system is wasted. Should be fairly easy to fix.

I like the idea of attached pictures, as with c64preservation.

Would also be interesting with information like where the system was bought, cost etc (if available).
