New Ideal Interface website

As some of our  visitors may have noticed, we now have a new website and a slightly new URL.

We have made the decision to move away from our Drupal-based site developed by Tony back in 2010 and have rebuilt the site using WordPress. This means we can use a readily-available theme and have an instant mobile layout too.

Our URL has also changed slightly from http://www.idealinterface.co.uk to http://blog.idealinterface.co.uk

Please let us know what you think.
