Quantcast

Well, with the company move to a bigger office and my Chief Architect at ADCENTRICITY now actually allowing me to play with my own linux server (yes, despite my focus on advertising, I am a bit of a propeller head), I’ve decided to move my blog to these nice new digs on my own server.

I’ll maintain the old blog for a little while and maybe even do some dual posting but from here on in, you should repoint your browsers to this address:

http://www.robgorrie.com/

For direct feeds for those with readers, if you can update to

http://www.robgorrie.com/feed/

Or for those with FeedBurner:

http://feeds.feedburner.com/robgorrie/feed

Hopefully I’ll be adding a few new toys and features here but I’ve outgrown the basic toys on Wordpress.com, so the move was necessary.

Cheers All! And to all those Canadian readers, Happy Thanksgiving!

Rob

Short post but maybe relevant to some of you. 

I’m in L.A. right near LAX from Tuesday eve (July 17th) until Friday morning (July 20th).  If you’re in the area, would love to meet up for a pint or two (I guess coffee works too)

You can hit me at 416.567.4715

Cheers

RG

Dave Haynes already announced it but for those who haven’t seen his post, the monthly DS mixer is this Thursday, June 7th at Grace O’Malleys

14 Duncan Street downtown Toronto

party

As per Dave’s email (I feel lazy today and don’t want to type):

we have the riser area to the left when you go in

no volunteer host, as yet … hint hint

for those who have not been to one, this is just a casual get-together of people in the digital signage industry … no speeches, no presentations, only a handful of arrests and no charges that have stuck … one of the attending companies usually drops down a credit card and buys a few plates of nibblies

if you are thirsty and looking to meet a few people in the industry, come on by … bring cards

A friend just sent this to me.

I’m doing a bunch of work with a few companies in Dubai and I knew it was growing but it’s sometimes hard to grasp without pictures. I’ve pulled a few out for reference but the full PDF is attached at the end and worth looking at if you want some more understanding.

Private Islands you can buy in the Marina. Each costs 7.5 million. Notice it’s custom built in the shape of a world map

The Residential area built into a Palm Tree in the Harbor. See the inlay for the aerial of the marina. The residential area is pointed out by the green arrow but you can also see the private islands (above)
