...well, it's been quite a few years now, but I really feel that things are starting to come together.

I have been putting the beta versions of Magento through their paces for the last 6 months, and while it is still early days, I am thoroughly impressed.

The version 1.0 release is a significant milestone, which I'm sure will make waves.

No9 is an award winning luxury bed and breakfast in Pickering, North Yorkshire. They needed a good looking website to showcase what they have to offer and reflected the quality of the accommodation they provide.

no9pickering.co.uk is the result.

I am proud to announce the [re]launch of amykendall.com - the website for none other than Amy Kendall!
