A special *ping things* announcement from rik maclean...

I am thrilled to announce that http://www.pingthings.com is
one year old! Well, actually it's almost two, but in terms of online
presence it's one year old!  And this strikes me as being a big deal.
I'd like to thank all of you for your support in this venture, whether
you're a customer who's bought something in the last year (both
online or at C'est What), if you're an artist who's been kind enough
to share your music with the store, or if you're just somebody
who's come by the site to see what it's all about. All of you are
very much appreciated by the ping things king.  =-)

Also I'd especially like to thank Scott M2 and Jamie Todd who
have done such a fabulous job of running the Ambient Ping
in the first place, and who have been a wonderful support and
inspiration for the store for all of this time. You guys rock
in a most Eno-esque way!

Sooooooo, what does this whole birthday thing mean to you?
Well it means that there's a sale!!!!  Yep, I have a huge sale
of items that you can check out at
http://www.pingthings.com/PTsale.htm

A bunch of titles by such wonderful artists as James Johnson,
Mercurine, Glenn Love and Vidna Obmana are all reduced in
an effort to let you know how much I appreciate your patronage.
(Quanitites are limited, so you'll wanna act fast on the sale items!)
You'll also find that selected titles have also been reduced in price
throughout the site. A number of Steve Roach discs have been
reduced from $27.50CAN to $20CAN.  And if this isn't enough
to entice you over to visit the site, there are also a metric tonne
of new discs by Angelmark, Diatonis, Sahra Featherstone,
Knowledge of Bugs and more!

Now on a serious tip I should also point out that there's a slight
change to the pricing structure at ping things. Previously prices
were a flat fee that included taxes and shipping. As the site
has grown more popular though, and as more and more people
are ordering online from farther places, it's become clear that
I have to follow a different strategy. As such from this point on,
taxes and shipping will be added on as a percentage of your
total order. Now I'm still working out a few calculations & things,
but I'm trying to make it all cool and groovy for all of you, and
of course I'm reworking all of the prices on the site to reflect this 
change.

So there you have it!  ping things is a year old and it's all thanks
to people like you!  So check out the site and buy a disc to thank
yourself for being so cool and supportive!

Cheers,
