Editor’s Letter
Wow, those two months moved quickly. So quickly, in fact, that I almost forgot to update my editor’s letter page. Hopefully someone would have noticed besides me.
As you can see, there are elements of the site that have changed. We have slaved away and hopefully enhanced the user friendliness of our platform while making the search engines find us that much more easily too. It is of course difficult to always strike the correct balance between what we need to offer commercially and what the browser wants to see. Add your enjoyment, our primary focus, into the mix and we are up against a hard task master. If we have succeeded, let us know. If something doesn’t take your fancy, we want to know that too.
As our content channels grow, we will be adding a searchable archive to the site as well. As you read this, there are people converting our entire back catalogue of print mags into the new digital format that you will witness when browsing the site. No easy task and one that isn’t much fun, but it will most certainly bring you the best of the last four years of absolute magazine right to your fingertips.
I am not going to hang around too long, this note, as there are a myriad of details to attend to. They say that time waits for no man, but the same can be said of technology. As we release new versions of our site, we are already deep into developing the next big step. The change is relentless. The technical guru who puts all this together and I commented in a chat that as fast as we can create and update, the developers are releasing new versions of the software that makes up the backbone of our site.
For that reason, we find that some bits of code from the previous incarnations might linger, spoiling the current platform. If you come across any of these gremlins, please be so kind as to inform us. After all, it is you that we are thinking of when we create the pages in the first place.
