InfoQ Video: Architecting Toronto.com with .NET Casestudy

by James Vastbinder on Oct 17, 2006 |

Toronto.Com attracts over 700,000 unique visitors per month, and offers comprehensive and searchable access to business and event listings. Originally built in 1997, the previous J2EE foundation for the site was found expensive and time-consuming to maintain, and limited TorStar Digital's ability to share content and functionality between Toronto.Com and other properties.  In this presentation, Scott talks about how the site was ported to .NET 2.0 with master pages, ASP.NET, and various lessons learned.

See Scott Howlett share the experience of building out Toronto.com (53 minutes).
