Welcome to the first edition of our
redesigned newsletter. We've made
specific changes to help you get the
information and resources you need,
faster.
You'll see fewer stories, carefully
selected to bring you the most relevant
information. A lighter, more streamlined
design to ease readability. Program
resources in one place for quick,
consistent access. And a single cover
story that focuses each issue on a
timely, globally relevant business
topic.
Find alerts about the latest events,
software releases, and other news in the
top-right corner to give you a familiar
place to check and stay current. Partner
Portal resources are grouped in the
right column so you can maintain your
membership and get help on the fly.
We look forward to hearing what you
think about the new design and approach.

Blue Acacia Helps Honda
Motorcycle France Launch 3-D
Interactive Website
What happens when a cutting-edge
Web development firm collides
with an equally innovative
customer with a passion for
quality? A site that showcases
an industry icon's hottest
products through advanced
technology. Can be
updated--fast. And loads with
greased-lightning speed.
Microsoft partner Blue Acacia
turned up the throttle on new
business when its team built a
visually incredible website on
the
Microsoft Web Solutions
platform for Honda Motorcycle
France. Using the
Microsoft .NET Framework,
XML, and AJAX, the site
kick-started interest the day it
launched, when 600,000 visitors
took it for a spin. What's next:
A custom-built 3-D virtual
showroom that will enable Honda
enthusiasts to design their own
motorcycles.
Read the full story.
