New product is ready. New website is not and it is kicking my butt.
The current website was done in WebEasy just to get something up (Easy Boys!) while a better tool was found (Easy!). That tool looked, and may still be, Expression Web but I gotta' say, Microsoft got me.... again. After making substantial progress, the last 5% seemed to be impossible but upon closer examination, it was more like the last 25%. The situation is bad enough for me that I was nearly willing to spring for DreamWeaver, and beyond it being too expensive for the purpose, it too looks like a learning / using nightmare. It is so bad I miss Front Page....
So therein lies the entire problem: dealing with the website, both formatting it in a manner I like (the current version is close) but retaining enough flexibility to have some additional features including, perhaps, an interactive Q&A, comments section and similar (although frankly I am concerned what Kirby might type....).
The great news for you folks in Canadaland is that there appears to be a new method of shipping across the US / CAN border that does NOT cost a ridiculous amount of money. Still nothing reasonable for the rest of the world but at least Canadians have access to these products at just a few dollars more than normal cost. Those in the UK are still in the $25 shipping cost range, which frankly is ridiculous on a $50 item, and that is my cost for shipping (I do not mark up shipping).
Thanks for the interest and let me know if you need a bigger Magic Marker or perhaps a bucket of paint and brush to leave bigger hints around the desk.... :-)

Brian;
I gotta ask....
I've been checking back every few weeks for a while now, and I still see no more information on the Exciting new farkle!
Any hints? C'mon, Inquiring minds wanna know!
Jamie
Yeah, Yeah... I know - Put up or shut up, right? I've been leaving hints about both your items around the desk here, hoping someone will order one for Christmas or a birthday... But I'll order one in the spring if nobody shows me any farkle love over the holidays...
