One of the first things I am working on is fixing up the site. I am working on a quick face lift now but we'll do a complete overhaul after that. @Joe: Entrepreneurs can get a hold of me at olson [at] dfjportage [dot] com Thanks in advance for thinking of me/us! @Everyone: Thanks for the kind words and encouragement. I am looking forward to continuing to fight the good fight while over on the VC side of things. @Jeff W: Funny you say that. One of the first things I am working on is fixing up the site.
