PC User has long reigned as one of Australia’s most popular tech magazine in print, but has had a restricted online help station rather than a full-blown web site.
Yesterday a beta version of a new site was on display at www.pcuser.net.au.
The site looks great, perhaps a little WordPressy – don’t they all these days? In fact was built using Drupal.
It contains much of what readers would expect from PC User: help, reviews, guides and downloads, in that order. A note from editor Glenn Rees explains what’s going on and says more content will be added in coming weeks.
Perhaps the most interesting aspect of this is Rees says many of the big features and the exclusive software will be held back for the print magazine.
PC Users greatest strength has always been its status as the technology magazine for people who don’t regard themselves as geeks. It’s focus is on the practical, rather than bleeding edge.
