18 months later…the announcement

July 31st, 2008

I just posted about the backstory, here’s the frontstory (is that a word?):
Today, we’re announcing our partnership with Hurco Automation, Ltd. They’re based in Taiwan and have 12 years of experience in building industrial-grade custom electronics. They’re building our new Sign (no longer in beta!), which begins shipping this October.
It’s got more or less the [...]

18 months later…the backstory

July 31st, 2008

Before I even legally formed RedPost in Feb ‘07, waaaay back in Nov ‘06, I began looking for hardware that fit what I saw as a huge opportunity in the marketplace. All I wanted was a simple, 19-20″ LCD with a built-in PC for under $1,000.

RedPost/Recycle computers find second life

July 30th, 2008

Imitation = Flattery

July 30th, 2008

The announcements of software with titles using the word “post” — an industry trend started by RedPost in February of 2007 — continues today.

July 29th, 2008

I was over at the eyedart gallery earlier this week and got to preview the “Doors of Goshen” — a new First Friday event where 12 artists took 12 old doors collected from LaCasa’s (a local housing agency — they helped me buy my house) renovation efforts and ran wild with them…there’s been quite a [...]

Big Week

July 28th, 2008

It’s Fair season in Indiana and business off the fairgrounds slows down quite a bit, but there’s still lots going on at RedPost. New employees (a 40% increase in the last week alone!). An overhauled website in the planning along with updated, simpler branding and much better explanation of what RedPost even is. And a [...]

Hi. I’m Andy Clark. I suppose I’m the newest addition to The Red Post team.

Tidbits: Waaay behind on my RSS reader

July 27th, 2008

Sometimes I let my RSS reader get away from me, like this past week. So now I’m playing catch up:

Disney’s new “Dream Home” has a photo that has no less than 11 (ELEVEN!!!) digital photo frames on the mantle of the fireplace. Hmm. I mean, wow. 11. Besides NOT having a RedPost/Sign, really? 11??? Is [...]

Here’s an example of how our engineering department (read: me using photoshop) hones it’s designs:
