Happy Holiday’s everyone

Bill Cullifer here with the WOW organization. I hope this message finds you doing well and enjoying your holiday season.

I’m finally getting around to updating the design and adding new content to the WebDesignContest.org site and I would like to invite you to take a look.

One of our goals for the New Year is to add the interviews that we took in Kansas City last year and additional comments from the judges. If anyone has the time to volunteer a few hours to help support this website and effort please let me know.

Take care and Happy New Year!
