Hat Tip John Baggott of ComQi for pointing me at this … The Linq Casino on the Las Vegas Strip added a pile of new displays, custom content and interactive experiences in a refresh unveiled in June.

Heading home, yay, after almost seven days in Taipei for the Touch Taiwan trade show. By day three I had very thoroughly walked the floor and saw what I needed and what was relevant. It is a show focused on manufacturers and that ecosystem, which makes sense for a country known for its technology manufacturing. […]
Well this was going to be a pain in the butt, I though, as I went through airport-level security screening to get into the exhibit hall Wednesday for the first day of Touch Taiwan.
