This digital menuboard demo from the Seoul solutions company Soundgraph caught my eye at DSE last week for a couple of reasons. First, I liked the creative design. Second, the company was showing a clever demo of on-demand switching of languages for the menu items. […]
It’s slightly weird that the thing I perhaps liked the most on the DSE show floor last week wasn’t digital signage tech in any conventional sense, but what really caught my eye was the flip-disc display shown by the Brooklyn-based tech/agency shop Breakfast. […]
Two Canadians, of course, showed up for the annual Sixteen:Nine DSE Mixer 30 minutes before the drinks were officially starting to pour. And they were already middle lit up from cocktails at the NanoLumens open house. By the height of the mixer last Tuesday evening, I am guessing we had about 260-270 in there – which is impressive … except that I printed 430 badges. […]
MALER Digital Signage and CEGA Audiovisuales have reached a wide range collaboration agreement. The alliance has its roots in the recent participation of the two companies in Amsterdam at ISE 2017, the most important audiovisual fair in the world, a great experience to work side by side for a week at the MALER Digital Signage booth. […]
Here are the winners of the APEX Awards for digital signage content and projects, announced last week at DSE. Razorfish and Dreambox Visual Communications took home the top honors of the night, winning the APEX Installation of the Year and APEX Content of the Year awards, respectively. The two overall winners were selected from the nine Gold award winners. […]
The Digital Signage Federation has launched a Global Digital Out-of-Home Council designed to specifically to support the needs of companies involved in what it calls “the intersection between out-of-home advertising and the digital signage industry. […]
At first glance, it might be hard to see the link between out of home (OOH) advertising and mobile. One is static, while the other’s always moving. One has been around for hundreds of years, while the other is a modern invention. […]
This is pretty damn amazing – an 80-foot wide, 13K fine-pitch LED display that fills the lobby of the new Netflix building in Hollywood, CA. The building opened a few weeks ago, and the centerpiece is a lobby that takes on the appearance and moods of some of the top Netflix-produced shows, including Orange Is The New Black and Narcos. […]
While still in Las Vegas last week, I had a morning meeting over in the deranged labyrinth also known as Caesar’s Palace, and found myself sitting in the central food court, looking at the video wall. It’s a little older, and could be very functional if the content respected and used the limitations of nice screens separated by inches of air space from each other. […]
I don’t have the numbers on DSE 2017, but my general sense from conversations with show people is that the counts were up over last year – good news as the numbers were sort of flatlined the last few years. […]
The standard grocery store layout can be broken down into 2 main sections: the perimeter with fresh items like produce and dairy, and the center, filled with the packaged goods. This “center” store is disappearing. And where is it going? […]
Normally I write daily wrap-up posts on DSE, but as you may have noticed, not this year. Too freaking busy. Day 1 started at 7 and ended after midnight, or something like that. […]
Boston, MA – March 30, 2017 – Boston Red Sox and ANC today announced the expansion of their 10-year partnership with the installation of a new right field LED display for Fenway Park. The new display will replace the existing Cumberland Farms sign in right field with a 16mm LED display measuring 14.28’ high by 46.19’ wide. […]

While the relevance and efficiency of search marketing is widely-respected among modern marketers, it is not enough by itself to maximise your potential turnover. After all, becoming visible on Google’s first page and having the capacity to accurately measure the ROI on your search marketing spend has less of an impact if customers are unfamiliar with your brand (or its core offering).
