Svensk Handel and GS1 Sweden organized a webinar about the business benefits 2D codes - the next generation of barcodes create for you as a retailer. They also showed examples from H&M and practical guidance on how the store can get started and benefit from QR codes.

Since we at 3bits have always specialized in developing scalable e-commerce solutions, integrations have been a natural part that we put a lot of focus on.

When you walk past a store front in a store, you sometimes see something that you get stuck for. This even though the decorator has not done it for me.

Every year, the state, the regions, and the municipalities buy goods and services for hundreds of billions through public procurement.

The advantages we have seen with NServiceBus is the simplicity in getting the basic structure to work, and instead the focus can be on design of the messages, and mapping of these to respective system.
Last month, I wrote about when we attended Sitecore Symposium 2014 in Barcelona in September. Here are a few more reflections that we brought home from the event.
