Almost a month ago Run BASIC Personal Server quietly entered beta
testing with about a dozen testers by invitation. Now we're ready to
expand our testing, and so I'd like to open it up to more people.
What is the Run BASIC Personal Server? Imagine a web server with a
built-in BASIC scripting language, automatic session management and
integration with the popular SQLite database engine.
I asked some of my testers how they would describe Run BASIC, and here
is what they said:
" - - Run BASIC provides a complete alternative to the complex
development languages that have evolved to script web content. Run
BASIC wrests control back to you, allowing BASIC language scripting of
web content. Create web pages in an easy to use project development
environment and publish on the web at the click of a mouse."
" - - If you've ever used one of the classic BASIC interpreters, then
you already know most of what you need to build dynamic websites using
Run Basic."
" - - Run BASIC moves desktop programming out onto the internet. The
screen displays, forms, interactions, graphics, and data-handling
processes you create with clear, understandable BASIC programs
suddenly become web applications, usable by anyone, on any platform --
Windows, Mac, Linux -- on any computer with browser access to the
internet. With Run BASIC, you can write your program from anywhere, on
any computer, and run it everywhere, on every computer."
If you are interested in Run BASIC and feel you have enough time to
spend at least a few hours testing it out, please send an email to me
at carlg@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
and explain why you would like to be a beta
tester.
We will accept only a certain number of applicants and I'll post a
note here when we have enough.
Thanks!
