Title: Who's still using Amiga OS?
Post by: Trev on March 02, 2009, 12:43:00 AM
Computerworld blogger David Ramel wants to know. Of course, asking this question is almost as dangerous as asking who's still watching Star Trek?

Visit http://blogs.computerworld.com/whos_still_using_windows_3_1_and_amiga_os and let David know.

I used to use the limited logs that geocities has as leads to find more information related to the subject that my website deals with. Also good for finding out who's linking to you the most and whatnot as in like who is quoting your site somewhere. I don't do it anymore, though, because geocities has screwy and incomplete data that often deletes itself randomly. It's odd that 4 of the 5 top "last site visited" sites are different versions of my own website's URL!  :crazy:

It's a shame the image verification code on that blog doesn't work in IBrowse (maybe it's CSS or complex Javascript), because I had a big positive post ready to go. :(

Poetic justice.

Oh, the irony. Works fine with OWB.

"What, people who don't think like me? What next, people who don't look like me?"

He is surprised at someone using wget - which is quite an odd thing to say.

 He puts Windows 3.1 with AmigaOS in the same basket, showing his ignorance about AOS. He was only pondering "who's still using Windows 3.1 (Oh, and AmigaOS too...)" because this is how he formulated his question, that's all.
 I wouldn't have bothered to post even if the image verification code was working. I don't see the purpose. I did visited his blog twice though, for the next time that he will take a look at his logs.
