Launch day

12 April 2007

Today (well actually it was yesterday in the main) we launched “Our Little Shop” onto the wibbly wobbly web.

What is it? Well it’s a shop, and not really that little but the domain name was available and fulfils both the number 1 and number 2 criterion of a good domain name. 1. It describes what the site is about and 2. It’s memorable. The shop itself is an Affiliate Window SOAP plugin. None the wiser? No I thought not - basically it means that all the complicated code is maintained by Affiliate Window all we had to do was plug it in to a website which is why we now have “Our Little Shop”.

So what is this blog bit all about? Well we intend to write reviews and stuff about general day to day shopping. Today for example the car insurance is due for renewal so Jane will be investigating whether we can get a better deal by moving elsewhere. Experience says we can, especially if we “do the deal” online. Tomorrow one of us will report what we found.

The difference is an astounding 13% ........ Read more »  13 April 2007
    Car Insurance ; this is a first - I knew that the insurance for my car was due for renewal, so I’d already searched and as I’d expected found that the cost had gone up.

    Never again … - I swear every time that I venture out to real shops that I will never do it again, so why did I find myself at a nearby shopping centre this weekend?

    Why is it… - …that your children decide to tell you on a Sunday evening that their school shoes have fallen apart or indeed any other such thing that required your attention some time before 9pm the evening before?
