New Electronic Journal "Passion"
On the subject of electronic media among the most
spektrumistov formed rigid stereotypes: an electronic
periodical, created on the Spectrum, shall be devoted
exclusively Spectrum. To some extent, this approach to choice
of subjects was probably justified in during the shock of the
disappearance of "Inforkom. Not undertake to fully
characterize, the more - to analyze avalanche
increase in the number of electronic journals and newspapers,
appearing in different parts of Russia, but some thought this
phenomenon suggests: people need not only strong a result of
new information, but also to exchange information. Centre clash
of opinions, exchange of experiences, correspondence readers
disappeared instantaneously across Russia came a chorus of
voices claiming to be his unwillingness to clamp previously
open their horizons. However, local e-journals began to appear
long before, in January 1997 Last year went Printing Room
"ZX-Revue." And it confirms once again
thesis of the people's desire to share with others
their acquired experience. Can not
absolutely assert, and the fact that the Spectrum did not
appear any other than purely Spectrum orientation, newspapers
and magazines. However, this is the exception rather
the general rule. It is understandable ... External motivation
for creating a new Magazine is striving to meet
demand for information on Spectrum, which
in fact, too little, which is fragmented, systematized and
stored sometimes in such exotic places that an ordinary user has
the vaguest idea. However, within
Each of us sits another "spring"
actuates a mechanism of creation,
- This desire to express themselves, to self-realization, a J.
It is this commitment and encourages most people to write new
membrane for new magazines, subtly suggesting granted
opportunity to share their achievements with a wider audience,
tempting experience himself as a journalist. If the people
writing for the Spectrum or the Spectrum, given the chance to
prove themselves with an excess, for users who can only work
with applications such chances are practically zero. Electronic
Journal "Passion" is intended to correct this blatant injustice
to the great tribe members, for whom (and hoping for it), in
fact, afoot to develop new models of computers and writing new
programs.
The concept of "passion" is such
that the appearance in its pages any topic
whether it is connected to a computer Spectrum
or, conversely, will not have anything to do with computers in
general, does not seem invasion of a foreign body in the
general content of the magazine. Now we create the content
based on hobbies (hobby) of each member of the editorial staff.
Approach to collect relevant material: each
Member of Editorial Board is the lead of his
section, ie is its sovereign
host and author. How to be heading -
from content to structure and sub-
Headings (including registration) - fully
depends on the will, skill and dedication of the leader. Thus,
our magazine is essentially a collection of mini-magazines
united by one defining characteristic - dedication of each of
its editors theme. Agree that the opportunity to prove
themselves on the pages of "Passion" is available virtually
every lover of Spectrum, regardless of his qualifications as
programmer or circuitry. Limitations Still there: we do not
publish individual articles if the journal is no corresponding
section, the leading candidates to be installed on probation.
To date, contents of the first
issue of "Passion" is almost
formed and includes the sections:
- Stars (Tatiana Krotov) - the stars of world
Vågå movies, pop music;
- Alarm (Iogan) - rock music, philosophy,
religion of peace;
- The X-Files (ALF Gordon) - UFO
anomalies;
- From the book ... (SWdZ) - bibliography, libraries
liofilstvo;
- ZX-game (A. Parazit) - no comment;
- Software application.
Until now, unfortunately, has not been finally resolved the
issue with the shell. Program Page Maker Cyril Mills for the
assembly of electronic publications, which, in fact, We relied,
did not provide an extensive menu structure. So that the output
the first issue may be delayed. There are some difficulties
with the text to the design. However, we do not hopeful of a
favorable outcome of events and invite all comers. In the first
issue will be published the addresses of all the editors, but
now you can write:
656057 Barnaul,
POBox 3418.
