History
[edit]The first issue of the Svet kompjutera was printed in October 1984.[2]
The first editor-in-chief was Milan Misic, later Politika's correspondent from India and Japan, then foreign policy column editor, and former editor-in-chief in the same newspaper. Many other prominent intellectuals and programmers have been involved with the magazine since its inception.[2]
In 1986, when home computers were popularized, a games subsection of the Svet kompjutera eventually evolved into a special issue Svet igara (Games World). This issue was published from time to time as a supplement to the games column in the magazine.[2] That same year, Svet kompjutera had a special edition in Russian that was distributed to the former Soviet Union.[2]
In 1988, Svet kompjutera organized "Computer '88", a small computer fair in downtown Belgrade.[2]
In August 2005 Svet kompjutera formed its official Web forum named "Forum Sveta kompjutera". As of February 2011 it had over 26,000 users and over 1,200,000 posts in over 56,000 topics.
