MacUser and MacWEEK on Mac OS WWW.
Some months ago, Jason Snell of MacUser wrote to tell me that he was using
WebSTAR to develop a production server at MacUser magazine. This announcement came
about partly because I was raking muck about the lack of Mac OS webservers at Mac OS publications,
MacUser being one of them, and Snell fired back that he had been fighting
for Mac OS Internet servers at MacUser for years, and had just scored this first victory.
Good news!
What surprised even me was how much work ZDNet gave this one little box to do:
First, MacWEEK's Mac the Knife is here too. You wondered where the Knife gets those
tips, and why he (she?) keeps ignoring your email? Better join the
Knife's Mac OS Web Crossing discussion board:
Next we have the summary CPU ratings for Mac OS compatibles, with street prices, plus
many different sort options and variations:
And then, the only other service at mightymouse.macuser.zd.com
so far as we know, look up all products with MacUser ratings, as you like them (5 Mouse 1996 products below):
Write to Jason Snell at ZDNet and MacUser Magazine
to find out more about the creation and operation of this
deep Mac OS server site.
PS -- Carl Steadman and Jason Snell have written the book 'Providing Internet Services via the Mac OS,' but
it was inconvenient for them to put the book web site on Mac OS, so it's not. And so
I can't in good conscience point to it here. Sigh. What do you think? No flames,
please, these guys work for us. Addison Wesley should pay, imho, but perhaps there
is a Mac OS ISP hosting volunteer?
