Week 1: Giving Blood
Billy and I gave blood today. It's not much, but since that's the main thing that spurred me to action, it seemed like a fitting place to start. You see, Oklahoma Blood Institute (they give out nice T-shirts) has taken to harrassing us by phone. Since we've managed to get off of most of the telemarketing lists, our phone seldom rings. We tend to like it that way. But OBI is a not-for-profit group, so they don't have to abide by the same rules as telemarketers. After they left this week's phone message, I contemplated once again whether to call and ask them to stop calling... but I really do mean to give blood, so maybe their reminders aren't such a bad idea. Then I started wondering why I don't give blood. There's just not a good time... but that's only because I don't make time. Long story short, I decided to give myself an incentive to make time... and now, I have a bright shiny frog-themed T-shirt to show for it!
Day 16: beta.craftygoat.com
Time waits for no website. We continue our updates of our various websites. Crafty Goat has been long overdue for a redesign. The backend uses text files, the look is dated, and it lacks lots of features. All that is about to change.
Introducing beta.craftygoat.com. Development of the new site will occur here, in front of the world. The backend will be MySQL, with the ability to easily add & edit products & categories. The site will sport a new style that is valid and accessible. All this, and the products are beautiful, too. What more could a customer ask for?
Today, you can see the style as it is currently envisioned. Watch for reports as the site develops.
