Bigcommerce Contest x Giant Robot

The contest video explained. First off, I was suffering from food poisoning while this was shot and edited. That was a tough day. But second, the Bigcommerce contest is something I ran across while researching new shopping cart options with Gary Chou (who was in an earlier post or two). He was showing me another system, but then when I poked some holes in it, this one came up and it seemed to be better. This is a web based one that actually seems robust and good for us. We're not a tech company, so using a web based system actually makes sense. We have enough problems trying to upgrade our website with new features, so imagine how hard a cart is to handle? It's tough, that's why we've been using the same system programmed by our friend Aaron for the last decade! He's told us himself, that we should have moved on ages ago, but we haven't. It's just nearly impossible to do. I wouldn't have a clue as to what the first step would be. So this prize will enable us to move and they'll even help us move everything, which is exactly what we need. Yes, it'll change our lives and will give the GR online store some better direction for the future and that's a huge understatement. We'll see what happens. If it doesn't, we'll keep moving on, but we may need your help!
