Hi JR and welcome to Codetown! I hope to see you blogging soon - what you blog here winds up on the Codetown homepage, so it will be much appreciated. I know there's a lot of buzz locally about GWT, so if you feel like writing up something like a case study or share a tip, that would be popular.
All the best,
Michael Levin
