yep, that's me. I bought a little nut extension thingy from stewmac, and I got a real steel bar (as opposed to the hollow slide that fits on your finger). I tuned to open G. (Acoustic, by the way).
Now what? I find that I'm having a hard time coming up with anything interesting. I really think a different tuning might be more versitile, so that I can mix in minor or other chords, but if you look for steel tunings online there are literally dozens of them. I don't know where to start.
I'd be very grateful to anyone with some advice - particularly a new tuning to try (ideally one where I don't need to restring, but I'd be willing if you're adamant), and/or some tab, or free lessons, or something, so I can try to make something of this. The sound I'm getting from my guitar is quite nice - it's just not music, because I'm not sure what I'm doing.
