February site improvements

They say that 80% of your success comes from 20% of your time. Find that 20% and do more of that. I couldn’t agree more – some of the best use of my time is when people give me a golden nugget of a suggestion and I use it to improve what I’m doing and how I interact with you. Thank you for your great feedback. Keep it coming!

Do I digress? Perhaps I do. The coffee is kicking in.

You should start to see human-readable URLs show up in the store now, too. Thank you to all those kind SEO spambots that needed to let me know. You have been heard. You can help someone else now.

The store now has back in stock notifications. Want something we don’t carry much of any more? Now it’s even easier to let me know.

Heh. Have I been making it hard to leave feedback about how hard it is to leave feedback? Gah! Irony.

A great big shout out to CEON for their great ZenCart plugins that made these changes possible. I’ve been programming for 20 years and I’ve rarely seen such well documented, easy to use code. Nicely done!

Also I’m running a small survey over on reddit. The question is: would you rather get all the parts for a kit, or just the instructions and the parts and get the rest yourself? Let me know where you stand.
