Digital Presence and Paper Signs

So they have a lot of interesting signs here in Malaysia. Like this one:



Literal translation is "not allowed to spit in the elevator, your attitudes observed". Haha, I guess it was a real problem at some point to have required generating a sign. Last week I posted the toilette instructions sign, if you missed it.

Today (March 7, 2013) was another shoulder to the wheel working day. I believe we have all of our data and findings in our plan. Just a lot of word smithing left to undergo too ensure it flows logically, consistently, and is customer ready for tomorrow's afternoon checkpoint meeting. Luckily I was able to borrow the use of a MPK computer today so we could divide and conquer the work. I hope we don't end up with to many food related interruptions tomorrow so we can complete. I have learned a lot of interesting things about how the Internet affects travel considerations and social medias influence on marketing these last two weeks. Facebook, Twitter, and TripAdvisor all had great content on how to brand your Digital Presence on their sites. YouTubes instructions were detailed and good just quite complicated to absorb.

We did have one impromptu break during the day when Kamri decided he wanted to show us the "Long Ball" arena where we will have our friendly match with them on Tuesday night. So, the game is on! It looks fun and Jayme says it is similar to Bocce, so hopefully someone on the team is familiar. Oh and "mat saleh" means white skins, it's what they call all foreigners. Heard it a handful of times today which usually ended up in us looking up at them and some laughter from us both realizing we knew something related to us was being discussed.
