Wow. Just before we were getting up to have our monthly staff meeting (3 weeks late! you guys have been keeping us busy!), several of us felt our desks shake and heard the ceiling tiles shift! Apparently a small town just 9 miles away from us had a 3.5 earth quake! We don’t know yet if there’s been any damage but that was really bizarre for us since they aren’t frequent in Ohio!

In our we Turned 9 entry, I describe a bit about our history. Did you know that we thought of BCS Engineering while driving our then 10 month old child to his grandparents? I can still remember where we were on the road that day when we came up with our idea and name. It’s like a photo snapshot in my head of me looking at us in the car at that moment. Since that day our lives have greatly changed. We are so thankful to have you, our customers and our friends, as part of our lives!

While at the conference, we were able to meet and learn more about several key companies and products including:
- Adobe
- Kenshoo
- Magento
- PayPal
- eBay
- Plus many more
While at the conference, we concentrated mostly in the X.commerce and Magento tracks, learning a lot of insight into these new technologies and software. Several new and upcoming features and functionality from PayPal and eBay, Inc. was also presented and discussed. The conference not only gave good insight into upcoming technologies but also gave good insight into best business practices for our clients for the upcoming years. There was a lot of discussion on how mobile technology will shape the buying world today. With the information that Henry & I brought back from the conference, we’re working to implement some new technologies and also help best advise clients on current trends in e-Commerce.
