There have been some good technology announced of late and I would like to bring a couple to your attention: Firstly, Leap Motion, which really does bring Minority Report to your desktop. It's a tiny device that connects to your PC/Mac via USB. From Leap Motion's website I quote "The Leap Motion Controller senses your […]
It was during email communication between The Movers & Storers Show and I that I mentioned day one of the show was being held on my birthday. In a following email I was kindly asked if I would like a cake, a stripagram or a stripagram coming out of a cake? Partial to cake, and […]

Car Storage Scotland of Lasswade, Edinbugh are the latest to go live on Move Administer!
After a successful trial period of a 3 user Move Administer it was decided that Move Administer would be the chosen system to replace their existing Remstar system, a system they had been using since 2002 when it was first purchased to run their removals & storage operation John Duncan Removals.
The data conversion from Remstar to Move Administer was made effortless due to our data conversion utility and prior in-depth knowledge of Remstar.
This is a unique installation, as we do have other customers just using the storage and accounting side of Move Administer, but this is the first specialised Car Storage company and it has been a real pleasure modifying existing stationery to fit this marketplace.
It’s great to once again be of service to Car Storage Scotland!
Digbys Removals & Storage of Basildon, Essex, is the latest company to go live on Move Administer!
After a successful trial period where a 2 user Move Administer, with Shipping Administer Lite was installed remotely and a day’s training it was decided that Move Administer would be the chosen system to replace their existing Remstar system.
The data conversion from Remstar to Move Administer was made effortless due to our data conversion utility and prior in-depth knowledge of Remstar.
It’s great to be of service to Digby’s once again!
I came across this posting on Twitter last night and thought I’d share it with everyone, but credit to Boris at The Next Web for the posting. Dear person emailing me, Email signatures are weird. Seriously. The header of an email already contains your name and email address, but still a lot of people […]
Hot on the heals of DevReach 2012, Managing Director, Colin Wynn, is also please to announce his attendance of DevConnections, held at Bellagio, Las Vegas during October 29th and November 1st!
DevConnections consists of over 250 in-depth sessions for several technologies, Visual Studio, Windows Azure, ASP.Net, HTML5, SQL Server, Sharepoint, Cloud, Windows and Exchange, all under one roof!
Several keynotes will be provided during the course of the conference from non other than Microsoft.
Colin was in attendance for the first time last year, and found it highly informative to say the least.
The release of Visual Studio 2012 and SQL Server 2012, the newly chosen development tools for Move Administer 2, the eagerly anticipated release of Windows 8 makes this all the more reason to attend.
