The Adventures of Zarb and Bennett in the virtual jungle

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.
