This is pretty exciting (for me, at least) update to the website. It's now possible to search and shop for the material goods that fill up your lives, right here on themicrocast.com. Click on the shop link in the left hand navigation and lose yourself in a world of shiny, colorful goods.

For those who are interested in how it all works... This is an implementation of the Shopping.com Partner API. Shopping.com provides the data (and a means of modifying what data is returned) in an easy to parse XML formatted document. It's then just a matter of parsing the XML document and displaying the data. All together, I've got a couple thousand lines of PHP code that make it all happen. (This is definitely better than my last implementation!) Enjoy.
