I'm going to give this a try as well. I've not tried PP, well I tried it once but wasn't successful but this year I'm going to force myself to tackle something out of my comfort range.
I couldn't find anyplace on the site where you can sign up to automatically be notified when the next block is up and I tend to lose sites. Does anyone know if there's a place to get notifications when the new block is up. I know it will be Feb. 1 but I also know I'll forget :-(
