Watch the world go by using reader boards

Reader boards or electronic message signs are illuminated, electronic advertising media tools that allow you to display messages in real time. Reader boards are used both indoors and outdoors with many purposes within different kinds of businesses.

Reader boards, which are LED based, are the most efficient and cost effective way to spread your message to thousands of people without any personal interaction on your part. The sign is your “voice on the street”. You just have to program the message on the sign and your ideas, promotions, or any other type of messages will be displayed to everyone that passes by. Reader boards are extremely eye catching which means your message will definitely be viewed by many potential customers.

Reader board signs are a great way to show messages and ideas that range from community information to business promotions and sales. The messages are usually shown in large fonts and with a variety of animations and colors so that it’s almost impossible not to notice when walking by the reader board sign.

The history of the reader board dates back to the late 1920’s when they were officially known as motographs, a news bulletin service. It was also called a zipper but no one really knows why. Reader boards were first used in the New York Times building and the first message announced results of the Hoover vs. Smith presidential election.

Reader boards became popular very quickly and people would go to the New York Times building just to see the messages displayed on the reader boards. After a while many other businesses started using reader boards: gas stations used them to show the time or temperature; retail stores promoted products, etc.

Nowadays, reader boards are used in just about every city in the USA. In indoors environments, reader boards are used in schools, churches, hospitals, office directories, markets, arenas, and movie theaters.

The first reader boards allowed only small messages to be displayed. Nowadays, it is possible to write messages on many lines and on varying sizes of electronic sign. You can also change the real time message any time you want. New technologies also allow it to display graphics and videos.

But it’s important to keep in mind some simple tips to best use a reader board:
– Keep it easy to read
– Use punctuation
– Avoid abbreviations
– Avoid long sentences

Signtronix offers many types of lighted signs to accomplish your goals, from traditional lighted outdoor signs to the latest LED signs. For more information visit signtronix, signtronix.

Citizens Urged to Take Precaution as Tropical Storm Alice Heads towards the Virtual World Whyville.com: The Consequences of Global Warming Demonstrated in the Virtual World to Encourage Kids to Learn More about This Important Issue

PASADENA, Calif. (PRWEB) June 26, 2007

    Tropical Storm Alice is intended to raise awareness of global climate issues and is associated with the opening of the new Whyville Climate Center, which is sponsored by Penguin Young Readers Group, the publisher of Al Gore’s young adult book, “An Inconvenient Truth: The Crisis of Global Warming” (Viking Children’s Books/Rodale Books $ 16.00; 208 pages; Ages 11 up). The Climate Center will serve as the focal point for the discussion and further educational activities, while significant virtual rainfall continues for at least another 12-36 hours. This will result in widespread flooding and destruction throughout Whyville, with considerable rubbish and debris littering the virtual world. Whyville’s citizens will need to join together in a massive clean up effort to restore their environment over the next several days.

The arrival of the tropical storm coincides with a new effort to educate Whyville’s citizens about global climate issues. According to a survey conducted on the site in May 2007, 77 percent of responding citizens said that they were aware of the concept of global warming. However, only 50 percent felt they could be a part of the solution.

The Climate Center’s initial activities will focus on changes in the levels of greenhouse gases in the Whyville atmosphere, especially carbon dioxide. In the center’s CO2 Lab, citizens will be able to document increases in carbon dioxide in the virtual atmosphere from the site’s creation in 1999 to today. Traveling back in time, Whyvillians will sample CO2 levels from each year and look for correlations with specific human activity. Information on historical events in Whyville, including the rate of population growth and introduction of new industries, will be obtained from the Whyville Times (the newspaper of Whyville, with articles written by kids). Citizens will also be able to propose hypotheses and debate consequences in bulletin boards within the Climate Center.

“The objective of this activity is not to prove any particular association between greenhouse gases and the climate, in general, or our first tropical storm in particular,” said Dr. James Bower, CEO of Whyville. “Instead, we want to help kids understand the complexity involved in the growing international debate on these issues and get them involved in that discussion, since we already know that they care.”

Activities in the Whyville Climate Center will also support citizen involvement in solving the problem of greenhouse gas emission. Each citizen will be assigned their own carbon footprint calculator in order to assess their individual contribution to rising CO2 levels in the virtual world. The size of their footprint will increase, or decrease, depending on the personal choices they make, such as the number of virtual accessories they produce in Whyville’s avatar factory, the number of trips taken around the world in the warp wagon, the number of times they teleport to the moon or mars, or even which types of foods they choose to eat. Whyvillians who substantially reduce their impact will be recognized with a distinctive green badge for their avatar and will even be able to trade their carbon credits to other Whyvillians for “clams,” Whyville’s virtual currency.

“We know from our surveys that Whyvillians are concerned about environmental issues, but don’t believe that they can do very much to have an impact themselves,” said Dr. Jen Sun, president of Whyville. “This activity is intended to address both the complexities of this issue, as well as provide examples of ways that our kids can get involved – not only in our virtual world but also in the real world.”

Over the coming months, this new climate education activity will continue to unfold, impacting Whyville and its citizens in parallel to developments on this important issue in the real world.

Bringing order to the chaotic world of digital assets: Cambridge Judge Business School builds on celum

Linz, Austria (PRWEB) November 19, 2014

Cambridge Judge Business School sits at the heart of the University of Cambridge. Established in 1990, the School has experienced rapid growth and is a world-class provider of innovative and transformative business education. The School has a strong international brand among business schools and invests strategically in marketing and profile-raising initiatives which result in the production of significant quantities of brand assets.

A new brand portal

The new brand toolkit presents a digital version of the CJBS brand guidelines focused on user need, presenting selected collections of assets which are managed centrally in the celum DAM system and made available via the celum API.

The portal offers staff and students of the School much more than just images by making available selected collections of brand assets such as Word and PowerPoint presentation templates, logos, fonts, and signage – all framed in an engaging mobile-friendly set of webpages alongside guidance on their use, built using the open source CMS TYPO3.

The DAM system itself maintains one master copy of each asset and gives CJBS the opportunity for greater control over the use of their brand by ensuring that the latest, correct, version is always available. It also provides powerful search functions and wizards to help the user download the correct file for their needs.

A growth story

Summer 2014 also saw celum’s solution for Cambridge Judge Business School adopted by other parts of the wider University of Cambridge, and the system is seeing rapid expansion of both managed assets and user registrations from other departments. Plans are now underway to provide a second brand portal in the future – this time for the University as a whole.
