I have to agree with Baldguitardude. I don't see that it would make it easier to play. If you do decide to go through the process of changing the nut and bridge let us know how it works out for you.

Re: Have I been hacked? (3 replies, posted in About Chordie)
Thanks deadstring, I was able to access my posts through another browser, thats how I was able to find my original post from july. Still can't get to my posts using my usual browser though. It is a bit odd that someone (erum) would copy one of my posts word for word. Could this be a spammer trying to find another was in? or am I worried for nothing?

Topic: Have I been hacked? (3 replies, posted in About Chordie)
This morning I noticed a post in the guitars and accessories section from "erum". It seemed to be a word for word repost of something I had written a while back (2013-07-16). When I tried to check on all posts I had made I found nothing, no posts at all. Am I going bonkers or do we really have a problem?

Re: Alternative types of picks for uke (6 replies, posted in Other string instruments)
Good morning larva. You might want to visit StringsandBeyond.com. They have some nice selections to choose from, I get most of my stuff from them as I don't get off the mountain unless I have to. I like to use medium to heavy picks, thin picks seem to give that slapping sound for me.
