I'm not sure that the technology in AB Towers has moved on very much since then ;-)

......but it might all end in tears when the new site starts....

[hc4361]

The start of the new site will be glorious. :)

[Mamyalynne]

You sound confident.

[hc4361]

I am, for I have seen the new Answerbank and it is good. A time for joyous celebrations. :D

[Mamyalynne]

For sure I too have seen and observed, the light doth not shine quite as brightly to me. :-)

[hc4361]

If thine eyes offend thee, smote them out - the cobwebs, that is, and all will be as shiny as new dawn

[Tilly2]

Not much activity on there at the moment.

Hi Modeller, The AB was a pioneer of this type of site, if you were around then, you will know that 'social media' as such did not exist.

It started out with a few sections, and each one was monitored by a Channel Producer who produced a feature on that section each month, and answered questions posted in, based on their expertise.

I was the Music Channel Producer, and I was one of (if memory serves) seven paid writers who were contracted to the company.

When the site picked up traffic, the owners decided it would stand alone without the features, so the writers were let go. I stayed on, and I have been here from Day One to now, visiting every day barring illness and holidays.
