Topic: We did it! Trash Your TV!

Trash Your TV! is up and running.  We've still got some minor changes to make but the basic site is up.  www.trashyourtv.com

Phew!  That was a lot more work than I thought.  I have a lot more respect for Tom and all the work he has done for this site.

Thanks,
Kathy

Great work there!  It really is surprising how much work is needed to go into a website isn't it.

Anyway, that's looking real good.

Re: We did it! Trash Your TV!

Great job! The layout is nice and clean, it's easy to navigate, the writing is friendly yet substantive, and the url is easy to remember.

Re: We did it! Trash Your TV!

Kathy and Neomatrix with a "little bit of help" from Ayahuasca ... fabulous job.  I'm sending your url to all my TV watching friends.  I've not watched TV since 1972, except for times when I've been traveling.   I was 9 before my family owned a TV.  I can't stand TV, it's addictive, boring, bad, and anything else you can possibly say.  Can't wait til you get your t-shirts, bumper stickers etc... I'll be first in line!!

Thanks.
Christine B.

Edited to correct my mistake of incorrectly naming someone other than Neomatrix as co-author/designer of this great site.  Already I've gotten responses from some friends!!

Re: We did it! Trash Your TV!

Hey, awesome job.  Very nice; I'm looking forward to forwarding it around once it's out of beta.

Re: We did it! Trash Your TV!

Christine, and Tom/Carissa, it would be nice to get your stories about life without TV added to our success stories page smile

Re: We did it! Trash Your TV!

This is great. I really like the step by step process and suggestions for minimizing
tv viewing at first, then weaning yourself off it until you throw it away.

What about the role tv plays in dysfunctional families? Many times people use the tv to avoid reality, the real relationship problems they have, etc. Another area to possibly explore. How it infiltrates your life with tentacles of misperception, bleeds over into other areas, and creates reciprocally bad effects. All a part of the MCS.

Re: We did it! Trash Your TV!

Congratulations on the site! I just added it to my links section. Yeah, I'll add my tv-free story as soon as I can.

Re: We did it! Trash Your TV!

Wow! This is a great web site Kathy and Neo, you guys did such a nice job! Your hard work is definitely reflected in the details wink .

Re: We did it! Trash Your TV!

Thanks everyone.  We were just looking at the stats last night.  We have had 107 unique visitors already, including one from the military!  We are planning to do an official launch today.  Wish us success!
Thanks,
Kathy

Make that tomorrow. We have already started work on the next version, which will feature even more informative content as well as an online store. Thanks for all your kind words so far.
