  • craftsmantouch, on 01/30/2008, -0/+2Food for thought. As a designer, I am part of the "brand" of my site. Need to think about how to transition away from that for future sales potential. Thanks for the insight.
  • princess1012, on 01/30/2008, -0/+2Well, we do invest a lot of time, effort and devotion to our blogs. A bit more to safeguard its future value seems to make sense. The problem is that some sites and blogs will just never be things we can sell.
