New Premium Content a Big Hit
A couple of weeks ago, I announced that we had developed a new section of our website that features what we call Premium Content. Any time you launch a new online effort, there are so many things that can go wrong that it is always a bit of a gamble.
The good news is that not only did our new programming not cause our website to spiral into the great abyss of quirky and frustrating Internet bugs (“When I click on your video button my screen freezes and a recording of Kate Smith singing ‘God Bless America’ comes on … is that supposed to happen?”), but the reception of the new content has been really great. Many print subscribers have been quite complimentary.
So, thanks for hanging in there. If you have not seen the Premium Content, check it out. If you are not a print subscriber, maybe you would consider becoming one to get all the new super-cool content. I mean, you like woodworking … right?
