Dedicated website for SIRIUS XM promotion/Links to good news
All,
I'm considering creating a website on my own dedicated to GOOD S-XM news / ads / info related to the products now available in an effort to help counter the negativity and misleading info posted out there.
If anyone thinks it is a good/bad idea - let me know. It most likely will be relatively simple - a few pages at most - and I will maybe recruit folks to help manage it.
I would also have no problem working with Charles/Brandon/Tyler in helping with this site if you thought there was a way I could help. I have Dreamweaver CS3 and manage a site or two of my own already. I'm in brainstorming mode right now....
