General Update

Friday, March 14th, 2008

I'm going to apologize in advance for the next week or so.  This blog will not get daily updates in the next two weeks because of a few things. I'm having writer's block and I don't have time to sit down and try to think of things to write about.  However, ...

Ebiz2 is almost ready to go. Made my first sale too.

Wednesday, March 5th, 2008

I've decided to give Ebiz2 a run.  After all, it was essentially complete and just waiting to be turned on.  I had been balking at paying $200 to setup my merchant account.  Sometimes I can be so cheap.  So today I went ahead and full force with my merchant account ...
