Digital Signage Software Are In Mainstream!
Remember the days of the 1990s, when anybody with a business plan could adjure up trillions of dollars of investment capital apparently out of thin air. Back then, it was a sure sign that a market. Marketing firms abruptly came out with technology products. Manufacturers became telecommunication industries. Everybody looks to run one wave after the next of technology fads made possible by the newly generalized Internet. It looks that the time may have come for digital signage. I surprised by announcement from the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, describing their newly product for… of all things… digital signage.
They are apparently looking at digital signage software and self-service content like interactive kiosks as new targets to provide Linux platforms. This sort of thing surely makes the technology more accessible to approachable that would like to provide an appliance-like experience, but deficiency of the technical skills in-house to customize the very low-level portions of the Linux kernel.
