Once again, I will be moderating a panel at Digital Signage Expo
on digital signage for corporate communication. We've got a
slightly new structure for this year's session based on feedback
from last year's attendees.
At industry event like this one, internal signage doesn't have the
same "sex appeal" as signage for retail and other external means.
But I know we are grateful that the DSE organizers continue to give
us a platform to highlight these "hidden" networks.
If you're attending this year's Expo out in Vegas, I'd love to see
you come to...

The Super Bowl is less than two weeks away and MediaTile will be
there. . . sort of. Let me explain.
MediaTile is headquartered out of California, but I live and work
in Indianapolis, this year's host of the Super Bowl. It's been a
point of pride for the city ever since the NFL announced Indy as
the host for the big game.
Well now it's here and we're ready show off the city. The Super Bowl Host
Committee asked me and 45 other local social media
enthusiasts to join its #Social46 crew. Our task is helping spread
the word about all of the great...

its city limits, the Consumer Electronic Show (CES) has news for you – Vegas can and

'Tis
the season of giving. But do you have that hard-to-buy-for employee
communicator in your life and are struggling with what to get them
for Christmas?
To help you with ideas, I reached out to several of my employee
communication friends on Twitter to see what they thought every
communicator needs on his or her Christmas list. Some were serious.
But most were not.

I meant to get to this post much sooner but work got in the way.
Connect '11 was promoted as the first corporate
communication conference of its kind. And it turned out to be very,
very true. It was billed as a unique event dedicated to helping
communicators connect to the
digitally
disconnected worker.
Now the term "disconnected" can be viewed in many ways and many of
the speakers focused on that. And though not every speaker kept
with the "digitally disconnected" theme, all of the lessons learned
were extremely valuable.
And kudos to the

When many corporate communication or marketing managers get
push-back on installing a digital signage networks from execs, one
of the common reasons they hear is, "
I don't want our
employees watching TV all day."
Thanks to this infographic from
NBRI, we know
what unengaged employees are doing. Nearly
30% of employees
fall asleep at work (according to the National Sleep
Foundation)? Yikes. The rest? They plays games, socialize, use
social media (whoops) or smoke.
The graphic also shares that trust in executives can have twice the
impact on...
