• Shopping 3.0 Webinar - 8th July 2008

  Well, it's been a while since we used this resource... and I have to apologize for this... MyITForum is a great site and we certainly should have kept our eye on this particular ball. 1E is hosting a Shopping 3.0 technical webinar which will focus on how you can reduce the cost of distributing and licensing software applications. New features include license rental, multi language support, alternate approvers and an api for 3rd party integration. We've also greatly improved the admin and the user front end so I would encourage even existing customers to attend. You can register from our web site home page www.1e.com. The webinar is on Tue 8th July 2008, 4pm GMT / 11am EST. -- Sophie Posted Jul 01 2008, 07:20 PM by Anonymous with no comments
