It works!

After a couple of hours playing around, the blog is now working just how I want it. Progress!

Hi, I'm Nigel, welcome to Chakra Bleu! and thanks for dropping by. We'll be posting in this blog about our progress as we set up the site and business. No doubt we'll have plenty of other stuff to tell you too. We have other plans beyond selling holistic and spiritual products, such as:

• A database of healers, so you can find one to suit your needs
• Holistic and spiritual discussion forums
• Links, information and resources

We'd love to discuss these ideas and others with you.

A bit about myself... I have a strong background in designing and programming web sites (specifically Perl) and have been working with computers for 15 years. I have a lot of experience building complex website systems and making sites accessible to people with disabilities.

The Chakra Bleu! online shop system is very much my baby. I have a lot of plans for developing a very customer focused online shopping system (and have been planning it for a long time). I'm building it from scratch (based on a website management system I have already written) so you can expect to see features being added as time goes on. We're always trying to improve so please do send your suggestions and feedback.

The first stage of the project, that I am doing now, is to build the basic shopping system. This will be up and running in November.

Sorry if this is all a bit technical but Lindsey will be along tomorrow with something a little less techie!

Thanks for visiting, and good night.

Nigel x
