What Do ...

[WDW1974]

Jim MacPhee.

One billion dollars.

RFID tech.

And the initials DDK have in common?

Yeah, this is a good one ...

Happy Holidays!:xmas:

 

[misterID]

All that sounds really interesting... But ddk? What is that?

 

[TubaGeek]

I hate obscure posts...

 

[Pumbas Nakasak]

A heavy duty S&M session involving camels?

 

[Monty]

74 does that. :shrug:

I don't pay attention until he says something of substance, which is rare.

 

[Giraffe Lounge]

Presumably the NextGen / Scene 1 project?

 

[DisneyPrincess5]

:lookaroun :shrug:

 

[unkadug]

If only it had of been a haiku.

 

[Exprcoofto]

Anything with one billion dollars in it must be good....

:shrug:

This would be my guess. Although this company was bought. So technically it doesn't exist.

Ha!

Jim Macphee is pushing RFID technology on the parks in a Billion dollar project where they will work with DDK technologies to add RFID elements to several different attractions in the area.

Either that or the Camel thing.

 

[MousDad]

One hump or two?

Jim MacPhee - VP of E.P.C.O.T.
One billion dollars - new country ?
RFID tech - new ride ?
initials DDK - have no clue

my theory
it could be that the VP of E.P.C.O.T.
is announcing a new country
with a new ride code named DDK:drevil:

Jim MacPhee isn't VP of Epcot anymore...hasn't been for at least a year IIRC.
He's instead been working on some tech role for Disney, which explains part of this I think.

DDK= Dance Dance Kingdom?

 

[flashinghelmet]

Disney's Dark kingdom?

Don't Do Ket?

 

[Brian Noble]

$1B is an odd number. Too big for an attraction---and probably even a new land. Too small for a gate. For perspective: it's the number being devoted to DCA's overhaul.

Could be a very broad roll-out of RFID tickets throughout large chunks of the resort, but it seems as though Disney doesn't often do that without some pilot tests first. But, I'm guessing that this is a resurrection of the Night Kingdom idea in some other form.

Watch out, they spit!

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Oh, and by the way, DDK stands for Driver Development Kit, which is now technically called Microsoft Windows Driver Kit. Whether it relates to this, I don't know, but considering RFID is also mentioned, it stands to reason its technology related.

If its not technology related, DDK, if I remember correctly, is one of the largest paint manufacturers in Italy.

DDK is a three letter abbreviation which can mean several things:

* In software development, a driver development kit
* Used on the hull of a ship United States Navy ship, it indicates a Hunter-Killer Destroyer.
* Dysdiadochokinesia, a symptom of cerebellar ataxia
* Dimpho di Kopane, a South African theatre company.
* Daniel Dae Kim, a Korean American actor
* DDK or Dbf4-dependent kinase, a kinase in the Origin Recognition Complex
* (Microsoft) Driver Development Kit, now called Windows Driver Kit

hmmm... interesting...:drevil::lookaroun:lookaroun

Isn't DCL doing some serious RFID technology on their new boats?

Wouldn't be surprised if its something along those lines.
