New website orientation (http://www.norecess.net/3/post/2012/10/new-website-orientation.html)
21 October 2012, 10:07 amWhile this website was supposed to be a personal website, I progressively felt that my past activities on other platforms needed to be more represented. I always have been a very versatile person regarding development and this was not correctly reflected... till now.
As a consequence, the following changes have been introduced :
- this site is no longer uniquely dedicated to Amstrad CPC platform.
- all the productions (http://www.norecess.net/productions.html) I did, including the older ones, whatever the platform, are now listed. Log basically starts from the days I learnt Z80 assembly back in 1993, to nowadays. For most of those entries, I created new Pouet.net (http://www.pouet.net/groups.php?which=8) links (when missing). And now available for the first time : I put online on Youtube (http://www.youtube.com/) some of my productions created on Sony PlayStation 2, Nintendo GameBoy Advance and mobile phone. Check them out from the Productions (http://www.norecess.net/productions.html) section.
- all direct downloads are now hosted on this website. This will ensure links won't be dead with time.
- the previous Articles section got removed. I just kept online the interviews (http://www.norecess.net/interviews.html) I did (now put in a separate section) since it represents, for me, a fantastic trace of history and creativity. Content is currently tied to Amstrad CPC but this may evolve with time.
- I will no longer write technical articles dedicated for the Amstrad CPC. Because cpcwiki (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/) is a... wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki), it has always been a better place for this purpose. That said, all previous articles I wrote remains online to avoid dead links.
- I will no longer release my custom development tools. I released my Amstrad CPC development environment called Phactory (http://www.norecess.net/phactory.html) last year, but I never found any interest in keeping it online. It has matured so much lately... and I was unable to give decent public support for it anyway.
So that's it. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoyed this site being dedicated uniquely for the
Amstrad CPC, but it simply needed to be more open-minded and more representative.
