Hey everyone. Just a quick post – this site has been moved to www.nikpanter.ca, and will be tombstoned June 1. If you’ve been getting my RSS feeds, please update to http://nikpanter.ca/?feed=rss2.
And, if anyone knows an easy way I can have all traffic simply ported over from xlerate.ca/nik to nikpanter.ca, a pint is in it to let me know (I am sure there is, just been too busy to look it up!)
Thanks all,
Nik
So, I thought I’d pass along this hint for Salesforce – I am not sure if it saves you time if you just live with the issue, but it certainly saves you time if you wanted to send templated emails without needing to know HTML! Of course, many use email templates during their day to [...]
So today is March 1st – and for me it is starting off as a lion. A smaller post today, as the past month has been a whirlwind of activities, meetings and announcements. Today the xLerate I started up four years ago with a small amount of savings and a dream is now being put [...]

So, I’ve been blogging for a few years now and every year I’ve put out a best of list IMO for the music of the year. And, to be honest, I almost forgot until a kind old soul I just don’t talk to enough reminded me that he was waiting to see what I thought [...]
Hey all, So, on Twitter this week Jon Adams from Florida asked a question using the #askforce hash – “Is there a way to replicate the WORKDAY function in Excel in SFDC?”. My first response was to send him as link to an answer on the Salesforce Community page which laid out how to calculate [...]
So, this past week, salesforce.com released a new feature within their core application called “Social Contacts”. Those who happened to attend or watch Dreamforce this year know that the Social Enterprise and the social contacts function got some major airplay during the Keynote speech by salesforce.com CEO Mark Benioff (if you watch again, you can actually [...]
So, those who know me know that my love of what I do for a living is superseded likely only by my love of hockey (of course my wife and kids come first for everything….). I played hockey for a very long time, until I couldn’t anymore, and now I spend a many a night listening and [...]
Yesterday, the world lost a technical icon, an entrepreneurial mentor and a great human being in Steve Jobs. The news came a day after the Apple 4s announcement, and the same day as Oracle Open World. As a friend of mine said via her Facebook status, “Every single comment or status update in my stream [...]
