As makers, staying organized and knowing what products we “have” is important, but keeping track of the products we “want” is just as important, right? Since the early stages of developing the Index, the importance of creating a web-based platform was clear. It allows us to continue to evolve the Index and add new features without the need for users to download an update, it’s simply there. Today I’m excited to introduce new features of the Index that will make viewing and sharing “what you have” and “what you want” even easier.
A huge thank you once again to our friends Neil and Zoe Hillman for designing and developing the Index to be the ideal inventory management system for Tim Holtz products. A special shout out to Neil for his web-jedi skills and patience with Zoe and I for the ongoing requests for the index…this is the way.
