- The official business of the ASP and an ongoing daily discussion takes
- place on CompuServe (CI$ - whoops, CIS). If you are not familiar with
- CIS, it is a large pay service with telephone ties to almost all major
- cities in the world. It is a pay-by-the-minute service with a small
- monthly minimum. That is the downside; the upside is that the telephone
- toll charges are very low and the amount of information available about
- shareware is tremendous. There are virtually dozens of shareware authors
- discussing lots of interesting issues every day.
-
- If you are not a CIS subscriber you can get a FREE sign-up kit with a
- $15 credit by calling
- 800-848-8199
- or 614-457-0822 and asking for Operator 162.
-
- The Operator 162 is a special code for this offer available through the
- ASP.
-
- Once on CIS do a GO SHARE to get to the ASP activities which take
- place on the IBM PCjr forum.
-
- The sections you will find of interest are:
-
- 8 Shareware Issues
- 9 Potential Authors
- 10 ASP Assoc. Members (this is for disk vendor and BBS discussions)
- 11 ASP Non-business
- 12 ASP Business
-
- The command OFF will get you out of CIS at any time.
