    "Hammering Away" being the active phrase sometimes

    I've got a unique concept, very cool product, it's something I'm excited and proud to sell.

    I think the hardest part is finding the way to sell it online, I've sold it in person where I can show someone the benefits of it and how great it is but it's much harder online to get that across and you only have a very small window in which to make that first impression.

    I've just finished moving the site and setting it back up, I'm about 95% complete and then I'm going to start linking it as I've already submitted it to the search engines. I'll let you know when it's ready Temi so you can take a look at it and decide where you want to link to it from or what have you.

    Duke and I have another project though which I think you'll like, if I can get the backup to work on the new server then it's about 50% complete. It's going to be a site that I ran for over a year called Fragtard.net which is a gaming community. However since it went offline in the fall, we've made some major changes in the direction we're going with it and we're excited to see how it pans out!
