FYI:  My dog woke me up very early this morning - so I decided to post a few interesting links. I'll share more in-depth posts in the future when I have a bit more time : )

Interactive Multimedia at the Local Bank: Link to post about Umpqua Bank

Ubiquitous Interactive Multimedia?

I came across info about the use of interactive multimedia by Umpqua Bank last November and wrote a post about it, "Ubiquitous Interactive Computing comes to the Corner Bank!?" .

Imagine this technology in our schools, museums, libraries, universities, and medical facilities!

Please leave a comment if you've seen this technology offered in your community.


Additional information about Umpqua bank's use of interactive technology can be found at The Bank Channel, Putting People First, and BusinessWire.

For more information about ubiquitous interactive computing and related innovative technologies, browse through my TSHWI blog. (Technology-Supported Human-World Interaction)
