Why on earth would I do this to myself?
I am a web surfer and buy almost everything but groceries and gas off the web. I even found our mixed breed mutt on the web..:-) I have become quite the web snob. When it comes to ecommerce and a web site for our store, we've had many friends or friends-of-friends ask to build a site for us. I have refused all of them as I would like to have friends as I grow old. If I am building it myself, I learn more and I can be mad at myself if things don't work swimmingly.... no one gets hurt..:-) I expect our site to be somewhat clunky at first but I intend to keep tweaking it and fine tuning it as we go along.
