VoIP Provides the Next Level of
Service
By Jessaca Gutierrez
 As more and more corporations and businesses have to
search for creative ways to find and retain their clients, companies are
turning to modern technology to provide that premiere level of service
to their clients, among those is VoIP videoconferencing. Xpress Print
and Mail Solutions is just one of many companies hopping on the
videoconference bandwagon.
Xpress, an Arizon-based digital printing company, started three years
ago when office copier manufacturer Konica Minolta was at the cusp of
manufacturing digital printing equipment. With five printing presses
split among the company's three offices in Burbank, Calif., New York,
and Arizona, communication was key—for both clients and with other
office employees. more>>

Focus on Digital Signage:
Dynamic Digital Signage
By Jay Ankeney
 Digital signage is infusing all aspects of our lives.
Consider the fact that on many college campuses, if there is an
emergency, the administration no longer relies on radio or TV to alert
their students. Increasingly, they put warnings up on campus-wide
digital signage systems.
During his opening remarks as chairman of the Super Monday digital
signage program at InfoComm 07, Lyle Bunn of Alchemy International, a
division of St. Joseph Content, and an industry leader in the creation
of digital signage display systems, said, "Digital signage is exploding
faster than industry analysts had predicted. In November, research house
InfoTrends identified that 2005 industry revenues had exceeded the
$1-billion mark. At the same time, they adjusted their projections
upward by 35 percent annually to forecast a $3.4-billion digital signage
industry by 2009." more>>
