I think you'll find it's pretty cool and easy to use but the beta testers will have the last word on that one. There's one site live now and one going up, hopefully by next week. After it's certified by the beta testers and refined by their suggestions we'll be making it available publicly.

Check back here if you're interested as I'll be updating the thread with new details as they present themselves.

Moving forward with the captains sites, they are available now. Be sure to check out the terms of service,  FAQ's and informational pages (in development) before registering as it's not designed for the masses. It's specifically written for the captains who are willing to add quality content, current images regularly and will invest some time in getting the most out of their sites (search engines, branding and visitor experience).

Please feel free to post any questions in this thread, have a look at the info pages (in development) or to sign up here.

Starting out with a 10% discount for a 6 month subscription for hosting & support and a 15% discount for an annual subscription to get the ball rolling but will take no more than two new sites at a time.
