A packed venue with plenty of attendees, and IT companies both big and small,  is what greeted the webqem team when they turned up to the Online Retailer Expo and Conference 2009. Huge companies such as IBM & eBay stood next door to our webqem stand, but failed to scare the brilliant webqem team! Almost 3000 people attended, making the Online Retailer the second largest eCommerce retailing event IN THE WORLD, second only to the giant Internet Retailer event held annually in the US.

The webqem stand was constantly swamped with attendees that were attracted by the allure of a spinning ski boot! Attendees showed high interest in all of webqem’s services – web design & development, software, training, and Connect Pro. One service, in particular, stood out from the bunch, the  new single source imaging engine – Maxoom. webqem is likely to exhibit at next years event as the two days were very successful and most enjoyable.

For all the photographers out there, there are some great eSeminars coming up for September.There are a wide range of topics for the beginners and the advanced. All of Adobe’s photography software are covered: Photoshop, Lightroom & Photoshop Elements. Best of all they’re free! All you need to do is register. If you still need more training, there is always webqem‘s Photoshop training course.

Septemeber eSeminar Photography topics:

• Introducing LightRoom & ‘The Five Rules’. 7th Sept
• Lightroom’s Powerful Digital Asset Management Features. 14 Sept
• Fast Raw Workflow Techniques – PART 2. 21st Sept
• Professional photo galleries with Photoshop, Lightroom and Photoshop Elements. 28th Sept

For the August ACUGA meeting, we were joined by Terry Shane – the President and founder of Refined Data Solutions. Terry showed us the synchronization and automation that can occur between two completely different systems: Adobe Connect Pro and Moodle. Terry’s company has developed a level of integration between the two systems that is “unmatched”. It is so well integrated, that students would never see the Connect system, only the Moodle interface.

The two systems work so well together, it must be magic! No, its just a great piece of technology that has enabled the two systems to work together. For more details check out the recording, or click on the image.

The team from webqem will be exhibiting for the very first time at the 2009 Online Retailer Expo & Conference. webqem will be showcasing their outstanding digital solutions including Maxoom, and Adobe Connect Pro, to name a few.  In addition to exhibiting, Larry Adler -webqem Director, will be treating guests to a presentation on ‘Creating a Digital-led Multichannel Strategy’.

With more than 2,500 people expected to attend,  the two days are bound to be hectic – with non-stop exhibiting action! webqem will be stationed at exhibit no. 18, so be sure to pop in for a visit and say hello to the webqem team.
