Billy presented himself with great pleasure and pride to the 25,000 visitors of the eCommerce-Convention in Paris on the 23rd- 25th of September 2008. There were more than 350 exhibitors at the conventions this year with almost 240 conferences.

Despite his impressive size, his gigantic antennas and a shoe size of 72, Billy was received with a warm and heartedly welcome by the crowds. You can also check out all the photos of his little red-carpet moves on Picasa as well as on Billy’s FaceBook-Profil!

We would like to thank you all for your support that allowed Billy to conquer those 14.000 m² of exhibition floor… And a special thanks needs to be extended to LeadShare for their help and warm welcome!

The big challenge „Bag in as many ants as possible!“ will remain online at letsbuyit.com until the 31st of January 2009. The first draw will be taking place on the 15th of October 2008! So you should hurry up and get your chance to win one Sony VAIO laptop…

Key attributes of Enterprise 2.0 technologies are search, links, authoring, tags, extensions, and signals.

There has been much talk recently about Web 2.0 tools, mostly in the consumer market with companies and products such as MySpace, Flickr, Wikipedia, and YouTube.
