A forum closing

Postby FZR1KG » Thu Feb 06, 2014 4:23 am

I just got an email that one of the technical sites I used to frequent is closing.
I was there nearly from the start, interacted with the designers of the CPU and the peripherals.
The device is called a PSoC. The site is PSoC Developer.
Really sad to get that news.
I was heavily into the forum while developing my hardware and did a lot of beta testing for them, naturally getting access to the latest stuff as a perk.
It's been about 10 years. Not sure if that's a good run or a bad one for a device specific forum.
I figured that place would be around forever being online and all.
:(

Technically I've been cheating on PSoC and hanging out here. I haven't been there other than a post today for a few years now.

I felt the same about losing my food forum.

I, inadvertently, led him away from PSoC.

Oh no, you're still the wrecker.



What do you mean she said "forum" not "former"? :confused:
