Origamiproject.com forum closing.

Posted on 20 April 2009 by Chippy



This is very sad. Three hours ago I recorded a video highlighting how the original Origami concept is now being realised with 3rd-generation UMPCs (will be posted tomorrow) an now, via a blog entry by Frank at UltraMobilePCTips, I learn that Origamiproject.com, the riginal Microsoft-sposored forum, is being closed down.

There’s a huge range of interesting articles there that I’d hate to see get thrown into the bin. Including some of my own content. (Do I still own my own content?) I’d hate to see this resource die so I’m going to contact the admin over there to see if there’s anything we can do to keep it alive or migrate the content into the UMPCPortal forums.

    It is sad. But I have to say I pretty much stopped visiting once I discovered UMPC portal.

    Much easier letting you collate everything interesting for us! ;)

    Sad to hear Steve that the old stomping grounds are closing, but this site is an improvement and the only one I visit now. :)
