Now here is an interestring project at work which I enjoyed, the school wanted a digital signage system for the reception area of the school with all the latest news. We already had a plasma TV in place running off a PC hidden under the receptionists desk but they wanted it upgrading into an all-in-one unit so a Samsung SM460DXN was purchased. The 46 inch plasma TV comes with a built in fully feature micro computer which is easily capable of running Windows XP along with the Digital Signage software which just needs one connection via Ethernet to control the whole machine. Before we used to remote-access the computer in reception to change what would be displayed but the Samsung Digital Signage system came with its own software "Magic Info Pro". I must admit the software gets a bit of getting used to but after the initial hour of confusion we were up and running keep reading to see how we currently have the signage setup. |

Here is a breif overlook of what I've been doing at work when installing different ICT suites. Many of these are going to be similar so sorry for the repetitiveness of the articles. |

 My original website, a short lived website that didn't have many updates. When I first started my website I wasn't expecting much from it as I was playing around with Joomla and I was trying to figure out how the CSS code was laid etc. Then before I could revamp the site a bit I was offered to make a website for the school I'm currently working at which took a large amount of my time so my website was untouched for a few months. The original website had a more basic layout which mainly focuses on blogging and I found it difficult to add content in different areas. But the main problem had to be the version of joomla it was running it, I was unable to run some of the 3rd party plugins or edit some of the default settings. I still kept at the website trying to remove all of the bugs and add content whenever I could but I just wasn't happy with the design and what the website was capable of. I'll talk more of the new website and the transaction to the new site in another article. But if you do want to see some of "learning results" check out http://www.maxisdomain.co.uk/oldweb/ My old site will still be online for a while at the above url, buts its a mess so don't expect much from it. |
