Saying good-bye to E-Pro Magazine on a personal level
Tags :Announcement
Ed posted a nice,
brief comment on the demise
of E-Pro magazine. This takes personal meaning to me after working
with and for them for a number of years.
To Our e-Pro Readers:
Effective April 7, 2005, Penton Media has ceased publication of the
e-Pro Web site, including the Lotus Informer Blog and related e-mail
newsletters. Clippings, our joint project with IBM/Lotus, is currently
not affected by this decision. From Domino Pro to Group Computing
to e-Pro Magazine, we have been a part of the Lotus/Domino community
for more than six years and have shared your passion for the technology.
We wish you much success! We will keep this site up and the archives open
for your use through April 30, 2005.
I had the pleasure of writing my original
article way back in early
2002 (publish date was later in Jun 2002). I still recall my nerves
for that first article. How I wanted it to be as good as the others
I had read. Well, that one ended up winning me the Gary Guthrie Award
for Technical Writing for the 2002 year and was the start to my writing,
then editor, then technical editor and newsletter author as time moved
on.
Libby
takes so much of the credit for keeping it growing and running for all
these years. From print to digital format to newsletter status. I
still love and believe in the digital format and as more magazines go that
route, the readers are getting faster and better. As we moved into
the newsletter era, Tom
Duff was brought on to handle
the development, Michael Fromin for Websphere and Ask Ben is always around!
So a big thanks to all of you that subscribed
and read my newsletters, articles and even the ones I edited over the years
through the E-Pro distributions. (But don't think you are rid of me yet,
bwa hahahahahaha)
