What's Happening

Welcome to another edition of the Wired Solutions newsletter, Word Up! Plenty of happenings to report so let’s get started . . .

First off, we would like to welcome a new addition to our workplace – Ryan MacVoy. A graduate of Fanshawe College, Ryan performed co-ops at both Essex Energy and Canada Revenue Agency (where, respectively, he not only worked as software developer with ASP.NET and Sharepoint applications, but later, was a team leader in providing maintenance and support for CRA Auditor software across Canada). He enjoys playing electric guitar; watching Anime; playing Magic: The Gathering and dabbling in video game development. Wired Solutions grows again - welcome aboard, Ryan!

Our expansion isn’t stopping there, however – we’re still looking for another programmer. Are you an experienced ASP. NET / C# Developer – or know someone who is? We're hiring! For full details, please visit wiredsolutions.ca/Job/Details/aspnetdeveloper.

Elsewhere . . . our “Join the mobile movement!” campaign is officially underway. Did you know that by 2013, mobile phones will overtake PCs as the most common Web device the world over? That means more people will soon be searching for your site on their phone than their computer. It’s true. Even more alarming? Many people still do not realize that websites made for desktops simply do not work the same on a phone (if they work at all).

So why hasn’t your business or organization ordered a custom mobile website from Wired Solutions yet?

There really is no better time than now, especially with our special introductory pricing package of only $799 (for full details, please call us at 519-250-7786).

For more information on the mobile movement, visit www.MakeItMo.com, and, have a peek at our newest print advertisement featured inside this month’s Biz X Magazine. In addition, we also present this month’s feature article: “Stats: Shoppers & Smartphones by Wired Solutions’ Mike Michalski. We're sure you will find some of the facts downright shocking.

Join the mobile movement! Don’t let your business get left behind.

In other Wired Solutions’ developments . . . we are proud to announce we have completed a new project for E-Learning Ontario, a learning object repository application that ties in with our course writing software. We’re also working on a new application for E-Learning Ontario that will ease migrations of courseware to their learning management system, in addition to helping Motorsport Insurance Group with their custom policy software.

Team Wired also recently completed a contest engine for the Windsor Essex Health Unit that enables marketing staff to plug-in brandable social contests into any of their websites – and – we have also launched new sites for several new clients, including The Toy Box, Moray Dive and Turf Care Property Maintenance. Welcome aboard, one and all.

Finally – did you happen to catch Wired Solutions in the news? Our recently-signed education-related contracts with the federal and provincial government earned coverage on CTV News-Windsor; AM800 and in The Windsor Star. In addition, we also were featured on the WEtech website; OurWindsor.ca and Windsorite.ca. So nice to see the media recognizing the significance of the deals for Wired Solutions. We could not be more excited to have earned the contracts and are enjoying working on each project. Education-based endeavors truly make our line of work even more rewarding.
