POSWizard

As of today, the Wizard of POS has its own domain, and is no longer considered to be the little brother of Brain Tags. So please update your bookmarks to pos-wizard.com. If my wizardry works alright, all visitors to the old address will automagically be forwarded to the right page on the new site.

You can also see the results of the redesign efforts until now. I still have to replace the logo with something better and add some graphical ‘splash’, but the basics are in place.

Please leave a comment to tell me what you thing about it or if you have any problems.

The coming days I will be redesigning this weblog in order to make better use of the features offered by the Movable Type 4.0 platform. I will do the redesign on the live site, so expect to note some differences in the coming days.

Thanks for your patience….

I have started making preparations for this year’s edition of the CeBIT show, taking place from March 15—20 in Hanover, Germany.

My company will have a stand in Hall 1, right in the middle of all POS goodness, so I hope I can pick up some new point-of-sale gadgets and find some trends. I am not sure whether I will have the time and the internet access to update this blog live from the show, but will surely browse around and publish news.

Today a new weblog has been added to the Brain Network of blogs: El Canasto.

This new sister blog will publish tips and information about so-called life-hacks and the Getting Things Done personal productivity system. Es the name suggests, El Canasto is written in Spanish. Welcome to our group!

If you work at a POS software or hardware company, please add us to your PR list ASAP. If you are releasing a product, email us a high-res image of the device or screen and a spec sheet at the very instant you launch. Our press release and tips email is pos at braintags dot com. If you’re a super-secret spy in the house of POS, please send tips and rumors to the same address.

Please note that just because information is emailed to us doesn’t mean it will be written up – it depends on whether or not your product is a fit for The Wizard of POS, if it rocks our world sufficiently enough to share with readers, which way the planets are aligned and what our current posting schedule’s like.
