Hi Diane,
If I were you, I would start tinkering away at my computer and start designing a website, instead of letting it lie dormant. A website is a very powerful tool if you know how to make one and learn how to use it.
My suggestions for you would be that you start off by designing an "About Me" page. GDI's built-in website builder is very easy to use and comes with a "what-you-see-is-what-you-get" interface. All you have to do then is enter the information you want for others to see.
Think about what you would like other people to know about yourself like for example...what's your job, what's the company you work for, and what products or services you sell....OR...another great way to make use of your site would be to create an album in it so that your family members from far away can see what's going on in your life. Post pictures, or "nice-to-know" articles in your site! This way, even your relatives far away or from abroad can get in touch with you!
Hope I inspired you to start brainstorming for ideas!
Warmest regards,
Francis_G
