Today I heard back from the manufacturer on details of how I am allowed to use their brand. Thankfully everything I had designed so far was right inline with my ability to use their brand. In fact they are allowing me to use more materials than I had originally planned which is helping the web site come along.
Besides making great progress on the design of the micro site, I also setup the web hosting, purchased a domain name, and setup Google Analytics. Hopefully between tonight and tomorrow I will be able to finish the design and start developing the site. At this point is seems fairly likely that I am investing a bit too much into the micro site, but I do enjoy designing and implementing web sites so it seems like a reasonable use of my time.
