Nice initiative.  With respect to your statement: "We find ourselves
answering the same questions several times and when Yahoo is used - the
answers are almost impossible to find via the site search." Completely
agree.

 

However, that problem can be easily circumvented by forwarding directly to
your email address. I have been doing this since the first week I purchased
AMIBroker in 2003. (Frankly, I thought that the vast majority of users did
this). So for Outlook Express, all AB emails were downloaded to a separate
account. In Outlook they go to an AB directory, as well as to the general
directory. There they are dispayed in red them to easily recognize them. In
the general directory they are deleted after reading.

 

 

Important: Rather than using the Outlook/Outlook Express default
directories, I always create my own directories.  This is done to prevent
forgetting/losing files when transferring data to a new computer (what
happened to me once; don't forget your address book!!)  and facilitating
backup. 

 

For example, the default Outlook Express directory is buried 6 or 7 layers
deep and even than displayed with a cryptic alphanumeric file name.

To change for Outlook Express go to: Tools/Options/Maintenance/Store Files

To change for Outlook go to: Tools/Options/Mail Setup/Data Files

OK, all, it is time to go public with something that Howard Bandy, Bill
Barack, and I have been working on for quite a while.  We have taught
seminars utilizing Amibroker for several years, and have seen a need for
help at all levels (beginner to very experienced user)  in learning and
using Amibroker.  We have created a site called AmibrokerUniversity that
addresses 4 areas -

*       Free articles, movies, and code.  These will tend to be shorter and
more general in nature.
*       Items that are sold - such as screen cam movies of seminars, and
advanced AFL app's or utilities.  There are currently three seminars.  They
are edited versions of conference seminars that are in the range of 7 - 9
hours each and broken up into manageable sections.  
*       In several weeks, we will turn on the paid subscription portion of
the site.  There will be a couple of longer articles each month, some
accompanied by movies, plus AFL app's.&nb sp; For example, Howard also plans
to cover certain chapters of his book based on the results of a voting poll.
*       Lastly, there is a site-specific forum with its own search facility.

So, why this format.  A couple of reasons -

*       We find ourselves answering the same questions several times and
when Yahoo is used - the answers are almost impossible to find via the site
search.  Plus many topics can be addressed much better with pictures,
screen-cam movies, etc.
*       Web 2.0 features and screen-cam movies make for a much better
experience.  That can only be done on a custom site.
Of course, users can check whenever they want and also set up a RSS feed.
But, we plan to send a digest once a month of both new free and new paid
content to registered users and subscribers.

Here's the main link to the site.  Registration is required for access to
the free areas, and all that we ask is the opportunity to send an occa
sional summary of new content and features -

AmibrokerU <http://www.amibrokeru.com/>  

Come register, look around - particularly on the What's New page, and join
us in the evolution of this site.  Any and all suggestions welcome.  I'll
try to make a specific summary post later of what has been initially
uploaded.
