Sunnystuff.com: Hello World!

My name is Kerry and I am about to open an e-commerce store named Sunnystuff.com.  Sunnystuff is a bit of a research project, a bit of a hobby, and a bit of a side-business, all-in-one.  Who knows where it will go, but I'm excited to do it.  At the very least, I will learn a lot.  Hopefully, readers will learn a lot.  And even better, customers will benefit a lot as I plan to offer the best prices on some great products.  Since making money is not the top priority here, I just want to build a great company that provides true value along with good old-fashioned customer service...a rare combination these days, it seems.

A bit of background before I start.  I do have some programming skills, though am far from a Guru.  But I know enough to where I can do things myself (for the most part) and that will help keep start-up costs (my risk) to a minimum. I also work for Endeca, so I have a lot of exposure to the e-commerce world and some of the biggest players. For those of you who don't know Endeca, they power the search/browse on sites like www.walmart.comwww.homedepot.com, and www.newegg.com (i.e., they/we dominate the e-commerce space for search/navigation).

The point is, I have a dash of technical knowledge and a sprinkle of industry knowledge. We'll see over the course of time what we can cook up. Wish me luck!

P.S. I would love to engage with readers, so please feel free to reach out anytime with questions and/or feedback (good or bad).  Thanks.
