Almost exactly 5 years to the day after its original launch in 1997, the web’s most
comprehensive searchable directory of Amiga made websites is re-launching on 29th April 2002. In the spring of 2001, ‘Made on Amiga’, along with a number of other GonMad / No Original
Thought websites, suffered a major setback when the hosting ISP disappeared due to legal problems in the USA. While other sites were simply migrated, ‘Made on Amiga’ was given a complete overhaul and redesign ....
After 4 months of testing, a number of design iterations, and a web-consultation with ‘Made
on Amiga’ visitors, the new site is finally ready and has never looked better. As of 29th April, ‘Made on Amiga’ will be available directly from
www.MadeOnAmiga.com Until that date a holding page with a countdown will be displayed. You can take a sneak preview of the site by visiting
http://sneak.MadeOnAmiga.com Continued interest in the site since the temporary closure in 2001 leads us to believe that the
re-launch, and the recent news of new Amigas being around the corner, will mean that ‘Made on Amiga’ is set to be more popular than ever. About ‘Made on Amiga’ Made on Amiga began in April 1997 as a simple web page listing exclusively websites which had been created or were maintained on the Amiga family of computers. The list quickly grew, necessitating categorisation. Shortly after that a move was made from a static page to a searchable database. Each site is individually reviewed and categorised. Checks are also made to confirm that the site is in fact made or maintained on an Amiga.
