gapingvoid: "cartoons drawn on the back of business cards"

Thanks for the link, Hugh!

I think the biggest thing to come out of this will be the idea of a template system that builds online stores and catalogs using blog templates. Easy-peasy stores for anyone who wants one. I'm kind of surprised that no one has already rolled this out. Tagged, blog driven, google-sexed stores? Talk about enabling microbrands! If I can get them to build it, that is.

I got tired of suggesting fixes and ideas to SixApart and never seeing them come to pass… So I decided to tell the blogosphere instead, and see if we can't organize a grassroots campaign to *pay* TypePad to make at least some of these changes. After all, I don't see any reason they should do it for free…

Whatever comes of it should be interesting, but at a minimum I'm hoping it will get the folks at TypePad to interact more with their user base.

i'm also trying to link you up to my blog, but i kinda new to this whole blog thing. so as i keep trying i know is bound to break. so if u know of an easier way to link it up, let me know.

hollarback yo.

I'm not terribly familiar with LiveJournal (played with it long ago) but it seems like you should be able to post standard html into your livejournal blog. Leave me a comment on the TypePad Hacks blog and I'll email you some instructions.

Yep, I caught it... I'm on the road but will get a sec to read over and then blog about it ASAP. :)
