Amiga, Inc. Announces Information Channels for Amiga Users

January 09, 1998 

From: Amiga, Inc. 

The Amiga community has grown stronger and more unified over the past
few months. This is in large part due to the efforts of
special users that recognize the benefits of cooperation and activism on
the part of the Amiga and its community. 

One example of this hard work and determination is what created the User
Group Network
(http://www.amiga.org/usergroups/). This Network, organized and
maintained by the North Alabama Society of Amiga Users
(NASAU), is a tool to reach as many users as possible. The average Amiga
User does not necessarily have the luxury of the
Internet, or even a magazine subscription. User groups have always been
a place where friends meet and help each other. 

Amiga, Inc. hopes to increase the enrollment of existing Groups. The UGN
will offer up-to-date information, special pricing for
hardware and software and even contests. Enrollment in the UGN will
afford special benefits to user groups and their
members. 

I would like to recognize one user group in particular: The
Champaign-Urbana Computer User Group (CUCUG), the hosts of
The Amiga Web Directory (http://www.cucug.org/aminew.html). Since I have
been on the Net, I have had my browser open
to the CUCUG "New Links" (http://www.cucug.org/aminew.html) page as my
default page to find out the latest news and
Amiga happenings. I am not alone! Because of this, we have expanded on
the idea of the User Group Network. All new
information will be released to CUCUG for immediate broadcast on the
Internet and simultaneously to the UGN for
dissemination among all the participating user groups. 

Wayne Hunt will direct all information for posting to the User Group
Network. The UGN is a fabulous way for us to reach all
users, whether they are fortunate enough to be connected to the Internet
or not and we need to support this. 

Kevin Hisel of CUCUG and others in the group have done an outstanding
job promoting the Amiga on the Internet! For this
we want to see The Amiga Web Directory continue to be the place for
breaking news and online information about the Amiga.

By utilizing these two, reliable channels of information, Amiga, Inc.
hopes to reach all Amiga users, world wide with the latest
news and information. 

Great work everyone!
