We're off this weekend to the Buying & Selling eContent Conference in Scottsdale, Arizona from April 9 - 11, 2006. This is a great conference in a very relaxed environment at the Camelback Inn, one of our favorite resorts.
This morning Newstex made two announcements which together offer important proof points in the development of blogs as enterprise ready content:
Alacra, a Newstex customer, recently launched a series of publisher/content provider interviews on the Alacablog.
In the past few months we have been working hard to recruit both the premium publisher partners and blogs that you have asked for. Today we announced a roster of terrific new premium publishers for our Content On Demand offering.
Newstex President Larry Schwartz participated on a panel discussion on November 17 in NYC as part of the SIIA’s terrific Brown Bag Lunch series. These events are a way for information industry executives to gather to hear a topic of interest in an informal atmosphere.
A very interesting take from John Blossom at Shore Communications on blogs in a corporate environment. Shore is a leading research and advisory service focusing on organizations that create, market, purchase, deploy and use professionally-oriented content and the technologies that enable its value in individual and collaborative environments.
As we've known in the news business for decades tagging news content makes it more valuable. Adding things like category codes, PeopleTickering, company stock tickers and other forms of tagging is extremely valuable for helping people find what they need.
We read a terrific analysis by John Blossom of Shore Communications called Vanishing Frontier: Online Premium Content Pioneers Adapt to a Crowded Neighborhood.
The management team at Newstex has been sharing around this terrific, wide ranging article from the MIT Technology Review.
Several Newstex executives will be attending the Securities Industry Association's Technology Management Conference.
The Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA) announced today that our own Larry Schwartz has been elected to the Content Division's Board of Directors.
Larry Schwartz, Newstex President, will be speaking on a panel called Who's Paying Who and How? at the SIIA Content Forum. This year's Forum will be held in Los Angeles May 24 and 25.
