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

M.

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

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

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

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 :)

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/

thanks mate, I have something like this in my mind. :) step-by-step :)

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

this map isnt going to contain any viable information except overall polularity estimations.

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.

and im not going to fill  technical info for any of them, thats well beyond what i care or have  time for.

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.

thanks mate.

it will be soon updated, that you can update all systems with one click.

i put the idea of pictures on the todo list. first i have to figure out the best way to show the additional infos which the users put in.

price i don't know, maybe the year when bought? i think prices are not relevant in the Amiga world or?

thank you so far to everybody who contributed. It gives me energy to invest more of my rare free time. I got a lot of emails in the last 2 days to improve the site.

Also a lot who wants that i extend it to c64 and MorphOS. I have already an idea to implement this, but it will take a bit time (also because i don't want to mix the stats with non-Amiga computers). First i want to finish the account area regarding to the hardware specs and multiple inserts etc.

thanks

can you give me your user id?

edit: if the serial is already in the database (for you are an other user), you cannot add it again.

it looks like Commodore placed serial numbers sometimes arbitrarily. So i removed the check if a serial already exists.

New features: If you select now a country, you will find now the additional link "Show on map" in the select field area.

this means: user need to put city and/or postal code in. The system try every minute to catch the geodata. If this fails you need to put them manually in.

When the data are in and a user select e.g. Canada he see where all user from Canada are located. User with the same geodata are combined. You will see this, when you click on a dot e.g. for Montreal/Canada. (its nice to see that I'm not alone there :D )

User without geodata are also combined in the center of an city.

I hope this goes near what some of you was missing.

Now I need a coffee :o
