Costco regulars will confirm my experience that all kinds of things turn up on the spartan shelves of the member-based warehouse retailer. But I don’t recall seeing any digital signage products for sale, as they are in Taiwan. That country’s 12 big box Costcos are selling 50-inch all-in-one kiosks, and sales results are so far beating original sales forecasts. […]

The Society For Experiential Graphic Design has its annual xLab conference on even as I type this, but I’m back at HQ and missing the event (but not missing flying out of NYC on a Friday evening … ugh). […]
Guest Post: Luis Villafane, Maler Digital Signage I don´t like “feel good” business stories when I’m reading social media. I don’t want to read something that starts out with “Before you die … live” or “What I learned from my hard-working dad …” Put that stuff up, and you’re unfollowed by me pretty quickly. […]

If you do product research, planning or consulting in digital signage, you will know it can be a bit of a struggle to poke around the Web to find all the information needed for things like displays. There are B2C sites and B2B sites, and sometimes neither have what you need. […]
There are lots of digital signage display companies with software solutions, but it’s pretty rare to read about a signage CMS company touting a display solution. That, however, is what RMG Networks has announced. […]
