I love OCC. I’ve poured who knows how much money and time into the place over the years. The place has built up a great community, an awesome staff, and continues to grow rapidly.
But ever since I was asked to come back to the site, I’ve been a bit… out of place. Over the years my technical areas have “evolved” and my experience has changed focus. I could once rattle off the different Intel and AMD processor models and their speeds, cache and other specs. Now, I’m lucky to remember what processor I have in my PC, much less the speed.
But I continue to help out with OCC, because like I said, I love the place. I leave the technical stuff to the guys that know more about it now, and stay pretty much behind the scenes doing adminly type stuff.
But lately, I’ve been working on a new project…AppleRelated.com
Sound familiar? Yeah, it was part of an idea I had a few years ago when I began TechRelated.com. That project sadly died, as cost overwhelmed me. It was however, a learning experience.
This time around, I have something I didn’t have with TR: The backing of Overclockers Club and Neoseeker. That’s because my project is becoming part of the family. You may remember a while back that OCC announced the acquisition of Android news site TalkAndroid.com. Bringing Apple Related into the fold is just another piece to a great family of sites.
I’ll be serving as site manager and running the majority of the operations, and we will soon be bringing in more staff to keep up with the news.
So, check out the new site. I’m still tweaking and adjusting things and trying to figure out what works best and what I don’t like. As always, I’m open to comments and suggestions.
If you like the site, you can also find us on FaceBook and Twitter. Since we’re a new site, we could certainly use the fans and followers on the social networks.
