HAPPYCAPITALISM.COM gets a relaunch

I offered to bring a former colleague’s website into the 21st Century using a “Content Management System” (read: blog software) from WordPress.

The site is pretty powerful. Charts zoom, keywords create on-the-fly links to other articles, visitors can create accounts, email questions to Lou, and vote on a series of polls. Behind the scenes, Lou can track the daily traffic, popularity of each article, and watch the subscriber base grow.

I just added the ability for subscribers to receive emailed updates when others add their two cents to an article they’ve commented on — to keep the conversation going and the traffic up.

If you’ve got a moment, feel free to drop by and check out the site at http://www.happycapitalism.com

Next: launching an online store!
