2014 Preset Group Digital Signage Expo Mixer Taking Shape November 19, 2013 by Super User Planning for the 2014 Preset Mixer started, in some ways, right after the 2013 edition. We loved the space, so we put a hold on it, and started talking about tweaks on the formula. All was tracking nicely, and then we had to make a venue change. The Hard Rock on the Strip tripled the …

DSE 2013 Stats Up Across Board March 7, 2013 by Super User The Digital Signage Expo people have released stats for last week, some I am not convinced I was supposed to see (and will hold back on). Actual attendance was 4,080, which was up slightly from a year earlier and not as high as expected, as the DSE folks speculate that there were some 1,400 no-shows …
Video Blog: Samsung’s New SoC Smart Signage March 7, 2013 by Super User My Signagelive friends, Jason Cremins and Raffi Vartian, have been talking up a storm with anyone who will listen about the merits and possibilities of Samsung’s SoC product, which was announced at ISE and then announced formally for the N. America market last week at DSE. It interests me as a product for a few …
Video Blog: Wandering The Sides And Back Of The DSE Floor March 6, 2013 by Super User It took a while, but here’s the second of three video posts we shot last week on the DSE show floor. The premise for this one is simple enough. People naturally gravitate to the big booths when they walk into trade shows. Being slightly nuts, and having been at this show many, many times, I …
Mixer Wrap-Up And 2014 Plans March 5, 2013 by Super User I sent off an email to everyone who registered for last week’s mixer, thanking them for coming out (297 did) and asking for comments. A separate email went to sponsors. The consensus seems to be that the venue was ideal in location, size, style and service – so our much-travelled little event may finally have …
Intel And Sapient Demo’d Nice Interactive Retail Piece At DSE (with Video) March 5, 2013 by Super User I have seen some stuff at Intel’s booth at past DSEs that I thought were interesting but didn’t have a prayer of ever getting outside a trade show booth environment. But as I squeezed and slipped my way through Intel’s glass corral last week I saw some stuff that I thought had legs. The one …

DSE 2013 Impressions March 3, 2013 by Super User I try to write a daily set of impressions from my time at DSE each year, and my first impression is that I was way too freakin’ busy to write up my impressions. I think I was in the press room twice on Day 1 and once on Day 2. So, back at the bait …
