Harrods looks for fourfold Web trade growth with .net | |
|
||
| Time: 11:23 EST/16:23 GMT | News Source: E-Mail | Posted By: Byron Hinson | ||
|
Thanks Stefan: Harrods hopes to quadruple sales on its consumer-facing Web site in the next two years by focusing its online strategy on Microsoft .net Web services technology, the store revealed last week. The luxury goods retailer joins a list of high-profile users that includes Marks & Spencer and Tesco. Analysts said the move shows the increasing acceptance of .net among UK companies, particularly large retailers. | ||

Jeff - From a development perspective? Yes.
From the other efforts? Probably not... But then since I don't need them I don't care about them and tend to ignore them. I don't know what this article is about because none of the links work, not even the one #1 uses. This ComputerWeekly website seems to be pretty hosed, and looks like a perfect example of why we need better development tools. :) |

Jeff,
As a programmer, .NET is the best thing Microsoft has ever offered. A unified development environment (VisualStudio .NET). A unified API accross platforms - web servers, desktops. mobile devices (.NET Framework). An extremely elegant new language (C#). A language agnostic platform for more than 40 other languages. All this and you get native code too! I'm not sure what revenue flow you are referring to with .NET. It seems to me that with this platform every other company has just as much to possibly gain as does Microsoft from using .NET. If it gives them new revenue, it also potentially gives it to the rest of the development community too. |

| Well as far as credibility goes, certainly an author who can spell the product correctly appears at first glance to be more credible than one who does not. |
