Two minutes into Voodoo Doll, Dave sings, "I'm strung out on pretty, pretty girls." While that doesn't apply to me (you wish), I would say it in good conscience with "pretty, pretty girls" substituted for "nasty, nasty code." Let me explain:
Over the past few weeks in particular, me and Jim have been working a lot on the site, and it's been my burden to write all of the computer code that powers it. It has meant a lot of work, and I've come to realize that it's ultimately too much of a challenge to build a site in this way and at the same time provide content for it. The site upgrade that we had planned for today simply isn't what we had hoped it to be, and as such, we've decided not to publish it.
Don't worry, though: We're not abandoning the site; we're simply shifting our focus a bit. We'll be drawing from the wealth of publishing systems out there to create a new site that's a lot easier to maintain. It may not be 100% tailor-made, but it'll let us concentrate wholeheartedly on the content instead, and that's where the fun is.
I'll keep you posted on what happens. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
Finally, Jim put together
a funny little audio file that explains the situation in a highly original way.
