I know it’s been sometime since our last post, and for that, I apologize. We’ve been pretty busy getting things ramped internally; dotting all those digital i’s if you will. In addition to our new project management and collaboration software (Basecamp) from 37signals we decided to work a little harder and migrate the website as well.

Although we’ve been very happy with our Rapid Weaver (our now former Web Creating software) we though it best to switch over to a web-based program called WordPress. As we (the royal we that is) iron out the formating formatting please help us out and drop a line for any “improvements” you may see before we do.

So why the switch?

1. I accidentally deleted our source file for Raipdweaver. (Oops!)
2. The recent upgrade for Rapid Weaver is $40 (for a minor update).
3. Rapid Weaver: Extra$, extra$, extra$ The slippery slope.
4. WordPress is open source (a.k.a. free)
5. WordPress is created, edited, managed and hosted on our webserver. We can post, edit, update and change from anywhere. No laptop = no problem.
6. Goodbye desktop, hello web-apps.
7. It looks a lot better on IE and Firefox for Windows.
8. It’s great software and getting better all the time.
9. Everything you see is a blog. We like blogs.
10. Great way to burn a rainy, overcast Thursday.

Hope you enjoy.
