Updating Links

Thursday, February 26th, 2004

Got this email from someone at PalmOne today:

Dear Palm User Group Member,

We are contacting you to get your help in updating links. As you know palmOne spun off from Palm and acquired Handspring. Now the main site for Palm powered handhelds and Handspring Treo smartphones is palmone.com. If you have any links on your site linking to http://www.palm.com, could you please update them to http://www.palmone.com . You can still leave references in your text to palm and palm handhelds, however we would appreciate it if you could update the linking url. Thank you for your help. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

I suppose I can try tracking down old links. The whole split is still a little weird to me. At least they’re not asking us to put the weird 1 in the middle of the name. ;)

Welcome

Welcome to the new HPUG.org, which I hope will become a one-stop resource for PalmOS related news. The new design is highly streamlined to look great and load fast in your browser or handheld device. Currently I’m working on getting “feeds” from the different PalmOS news sites that we can aggregate here. What that means is that instead of visiting 5 or 6 different sites for the news you need, you can visit here and see all the articles in one place and follow links to the ones that interest you. The format that enables this is called RSS, and you’ll be hearing a lot more about it in the future.
