I’m pretty excited right now. My wife Aeryn has an idea for her first site. She’s often helped me out on mine and we’ve tried a few small ideas together but never built her own from idea to launch. She found a topic she wants to cover and I think it will do well. I’m looking forward to working with her on it. We’ll be using Wordpress, naturally and I’ll do the template for it. It’s one of the two sites I’ll be part of launching for 2009.
One of the things we decided to do was try to capture the process for launching our sites so that whatever we learn we can share with everyone. I think we may use a WP to chronicle that journey but not publish it to the public. We’ll then take all that info and then release it as a free ebook, including the mistakes and mishaps along the way. Give people a real look at what it takes to get a site going. Maybe do some video diaries along the way, that sort of thing. We haven’t ironed out exactly how to do this part yet, but we have already decided it’ll be free for whoever wants it. I’m just excited to be working with my wife on this.
