XT+M Does Dreamforce 09: The Cloud Computing Event of the Year.

On a quest for knowledge we travelled to a place we've never been before... heaven. Well, it wasn’t really heaven, but we did study Cloud Computing at the Salesforce.com Dreamforce Global Gathering 2009 in sunny San Francisco.

With over 19,000 attendees and more than 200 sessions at the Moscone Center, this was historically the largest Salesforce.com conference to date.

Experts in sales, marketing, social media, and IT, among others, conducted interactive, engaging, and in many cases hands-on lessons through the Force.com platform, shedding light on all facets of Saleforce.com. From marketing mavens to gizmo-geeks, and some, like us, a little bit of both, a spectrum of service sectors were brought together in the clouds, illuminating colourful uses of the platform.

XT+M has demonstrated our mastery of Salesforce.com and CMS Drupal integration with the launch of the Heart&Stroke Restart website. And with another Drupal-Salesforce.com integration underway, we are excited to bring the value of smart sites to all XT+M clients.

Inspired, invigorated, and set to ignite Salesforce.com’s potential in our technology-driven campaigns, we are working hard, ready to turn our dreams into reality.

Here, come take a glimpse at a few of our favourite moments on cloud-9…

XT+M and top Canadian Fashion Designer Kendra Francis Launch iamfranke.com

TORONTO, ONTARIO - Dec. 9, 2009: XT+M Inc. and top Canadian fashion designer and Project Runway Canada contestant Kendra Francis launch iamfranke.com, a highly fashionable AND highly functional, transactional website built in Drupal.

“XT+M knew what I was looking for right away, they got it. Collaboratively they worked well with me and we seamlessly worked together and brought my vision to life,” said Kendra Francis.

“Typically, the default for many highly design-oriented websites is to build them in Flash. Our approach is to make technology work for our clients with online properties that are dynamic, easily managed by the client and search engine friendly,” said Marilyn Schaffer, President & CEO, XT+M.

“We choose Drupal for many website builds for its flexibility, integration of best practice SEO, and end-user friendly interface,” said Tonja Terterian, VP, Technology, XT+M.

An integrated shopping cart function and online catalogues “Lookbooks” managed by Kendra, consistently update followers with the latest FRANKE has to offer.
