How to make the "Store Message" useful?

a couple of questions about making the store message more useful:

1 - Can I add a link in the store message to, for instance, a newsletter signup? or a facebook page, or a new featured item… links don’t work, it seems (do i need to do them in markup?)

2 - Can the store message appear on the store page itself, and not just on the products’ pages?

Good questions - I don’t think you can include a link in it right now, but not a bad idea.

And yes we can add that. Good points!
