Relaunched bcomfy.com as a Resource Site

Some of you may remember that I had a company back in '99-2000 that focused on helping companies and individuals "ergonomize" their work spaces - bcomfy.com was the site and it was to be an online resource. I launched it right at the peak of the dotcom boom and learned a lot through the process, getting a ton of help from the Forum for Women Entrepreneurs", the Software Development Forum, and the Womens Technology Cluster. Funding began drying up and nobody wanted to work two jobs simultaneously any more, so I joined another startup and put bcomfy on hiatus...

Yesterday, after a lunch discussion with another local serial entrepreneur where we discussed how easy it was to launch web sites these days, I decided it was time to relaunch bcomfy as a blog. I won't be writing much there on a regular basis, but it's an easy framework to put up news and information and it has a nice linkable interface for resources. I tried out the new Blogger interface as the site redirects to Blogspot and it works pretty well. There are a few little bugs like I couldn't for the life of me get it to put up an image that I had but it looks pretty good otherwise.

The idea behind the site is to be a helpful resource for people with injuries, disabilities and illnesses making ergonomics painful and/or difficult for them. So please - if you know people with carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, chronic pain syndrome, trigger finger, paralysis, numbness, ganglion cysts or other repetitive strain injuries or symptoms, please direct them to the new bcomfy.com site if they are seeking resources. Thanks!
