I'm a huge fan of having domains for my businesses. They're cheap, I have webspace anyway, and people can remember them much easier.
I had been using my domain to redirect to my blog, which contains my contact information, but I ran into a couple of snags. One, people keep going to the domain of one business actually wanting the other. Two, the information was quietly to the side so I think it gets missed a lot. Three, most people visiting my site don't care about the blog, they just want to email me or look at my gallery.
So, I've relaunched my main page at NostalgicNerdom.com! It's kind of boring, and when I get the store open I'll probably put a mini cart on the side. BUT, it does what needs to be done. I included a contact form so I don't lose people there.
I put up an almost identical page at ChainedtotheStrange.com, so hopefully I won't lose people who go to that site looking for NN =D
I finished finals yesterday, and plan on spending this vacation working on the business. So, lots of updates planned! Next is some behind the scenes work making my spreadsheets more manageable, as well as tidying the business folder. Later I will be taking advantage of my Dad's power tools to cut my circuit boards into smaller sizes that I can work with easier. Might even be able to get fancy! I have some space invaders to paint and drill (more on them in a later update!), and of course beading to do. My tiny beads finally came in (never buy from hamabeadsonline, seriously), so expect some itty bitty goodness!
Let me know if there's anything you'd like to see done!
Welcome!
Thank's for visiting Nostalgic Nerdom! If you're a first time visitor check out the links there to the right. I spend much of my "free" time creating geeky awesomeness which you can find in my Etsy shop! This blog is where I post about the random stuff I'm getting up to.

So much new!
Sorry for the lack of updates those who follow! Tis that wonderful time of year for those of us who keep doing classes through the summer, exams! I keep Facebook relatively updated, so if you aren't already, follow me there! I also post most of my stuff on flickr if you aren't on facebook.
You may have noticed I'm not selling online yet. Quite simply, I can't keep up with local demand yet, let alone selling online! I'll be bringing in one of my friends as slave labour in the fall, and will be making a large order of beads to have my supply stock full. 10k of black, I think so! Honestly, sprites use so much black LOL. If there's anything you see on the blog, facebook, or flickr that you'd like let me know and I can do a custom order!
I leave you with my favorite creation. I really hope someone buys the whole set, it really is too awesome
