Barclay's go live in London with Microsoft Surface

So, quite rightly Mr Zarb has bent my ear hard, and for those who know me that’s a lot or ear to bend.  So New Year which means that I will be picking up the blogging effort.  To add some variety to the blog itself I will be covering topics outside of virtualization as well as virtualization topic’s also.

In addition I have been hooked on twitter for the past couple of months.  So read more on what I am up to by following me here on twitter 

So why is Barclay’s interesting, a couple of things its the first Banking use of Microsoft Surface here in the UK and secondly its a project that I worked on :) so if your London based check it out at the Barclay’s Piccadilly branch.

Customer quote: Mike Amato, chief distribution and product officer for Barclays, says: "We have taken inspiration from retailers such as Apple and Nike and developed a space that attracts and engages individuals whilst conveying what the Barclays brand represents

Typical they had to get a reference in around Apple.

  I was wondering whether this had become Mr Zarb's blog.  Looking forward to hearing your thoughts Mr B.
