I guess you can say its a privilege. It’s basically a beta program intended to allow a few customers “production” access to the Force.com Sites technology so that they can fine tune anything before they make it generally available to every Salesforce.com customer. The pilot program, I hear, was rather selective.

Currently, I’m going through the initial set up (nothing to show yet) but I do hope to be able to show some progress, or at least screen shots, here.

With advances in monitor technology and size, most web-saavy users cannot remember the days of 800px-wide sites.

Therefore, I took a deep dive into our Google Analytics accounts and sure enough, people shop our website with some rather large resolutions (e.g. 1920×1200, 1680×1050, 1400×1050, 1600×1200).

So, I’ve recently widened the site to 990px:
