Pretty good!

It looks like we are almost on "all-systems-go" for Wordpress.com to host and manage Consumer Nation (or CN for short since our inception.)

We have tested out the interfaces for members/consumers/readers to interact with CN via a blog format versus the old discussion forum format, and admit that CN is better served using a blog format - something that has long been my personal stand. Somehow, the stuff we write about ... does not seem to get through as clearly on convoluted, multiple-line, multiple-forum interfaces. And blogging about the stuff we consume everyday is - now, with Wordpress.com - much faster and simpler than using a forum post entry system.

We will continue to test out the commenting system before we start to port the existing posts from the forum to this site. This should start in reverse chronological order - the earliest 10 entries of the forum will appear first to preserve the chronological order of a blogging format. We hope that once the porting starts, that you will help us put the commenting system to test.

Thanks for catching up with us!
