There’s a place on the Internet – the online-forum dedicated to Amy. It’s a quite long-liver: being founded back in the 2007’th by Clare, the forum has accumulated hundreds of thousands of posts, where you can find absolutely everything: interviews, articles, videos, useful links and so on. It’s a great source of information for all Amy’s fans over the world and, of course, the forum still keeps being updated by members. Owing to an odd coincidence I happen to work as an administrator of this forum since the middle of the last year and I have to admit I’m happy to know I’m doing something in Amy’s memory. For me it’s not just an online-forum where some fans are conversating to each other, because I consider it as a true “Amy-Place” – just not in London, but on the Internet.
I’m happy to look after it and to make some improvements when I can, as that’s something I can do to render my gratitude to Amy. That’s why I would be very glad to spend much more time developing it. Alas, the time is limited and nowadays I have to solve other issues. Living in Ukraine takes lot of time & efforts to run your IT-business when crazy Russian czar (yeah, Putin is such a “khuilo”!) tries to make war (and maybe some perverted kind of love) to you and your country. So, I have to spend a lot of time working hard and when I’m not working, I’m spending my time playing music (thanks to Amy!). And now I’ve got used to play on streets, and, damn, I love to do that – not for money, just for joy. So, yes, the time is fast.
And that’s why I’m so grateful to my colleagues – Cecilia and Amy Jenna Harper, who are doing so much for our forum. We’ve migrated to the new software (IP.Board is so much better than our old vBulletin), we made a bunch of improvements (some members are even quite happy with them). Cee has accepted to take on the mantle of an administrator, she’s managing the board and AJH is shooting off spammers. Obviously I’m not going come to come off, as I love this place, but I’ll be really glad to observe our reborning forum blossoms in good hands. 🙂
This place is really great, guys, and maybe you’ll join it and love it too. So, welcome all Amy-People to the old good (& the new great) Amy Winehouse Forum at www.amywinehouseforum.co.uk!
