I couldn’t do a photo essay of Times Square through the ages without following up by doing one about Sunset Strip in West Hollywood. In my humble opinion Sunset Strip might just be more dynamic from an outdoor advertising perspective than Times Square is. My guess is Netflix would agree with me. […]
The DPAA has firmed up plans for what will be the second Video Everywhere Canada Summit, on May 29 in Toronto. The Summit is back at the The Rec Room – a huge bar and entertainment complex run by Cineplex, that’s in the shadow of the CN Tower and the Rogers Centre (where the Blue Jays plays). In other words, it’s relatively handy for locals and out-of-towners. […]
One of the experiences repeated over and over again each year at Digital Signage Expo is checking in with industry vets and asking if they saw anything I needed to see. As outlined in other posts, going to numerous trade shows in a matter of weeks means it is hard, by DSE time, to find much that wasn’t already launched or showcased at NRF, ISE and so on. […]

My brother-in-law Bruce was part of the team last week at the annual 16:9 Mixer – running around taking pix with a real camera. He took a pile, and here are some of those shots. […]
The 15th Annual APEX Awards were handed out last week in Las Vegas – judged and presented by the Digital Signage Federation, during Digital Signage Expo. I am on the board of the DSF, but was not involved in the judging.
