InfoComm’s Digital Signage Footprint Not Exactly Heavy In 2013 June 2, 2013 by Super User I tend to book my way to InfoComm as a matter of routine, without really looking at what’s on and who is there. So it was pretty surprising to see how skimpy the digital signage presence is this year. All the big display and projection guys are, of course, there with big booths and lotsa …

DSF Plans Four Networking Mixers, Inc June Event In Toronto March 12, 2013 by Super User It has been almost a couple of years since I last organized a mixer in Toronto, and I get fairly regular emails asking when that would be revived.

DSA Plans 2-Day Spring Symposium In DFW March 7, 2013 by Super User The Digital Screenmedia Association staging a two-day symposium May 9-10 in Dallas – kind of a micro-conference that has fees but also appears to be bankrolled by a handful of sponsoring vendors. The event, which is day of yakking split across two days, is at the Hilton DFW Lakes Executive Conference Center. Thursday, May 9 …
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 …
