You’ve heard the term “social media monitoring” tossed around – heady mechanisms and extensive dashboards that allow power users and administrators to listen and monitor your entire social web. Although the resident social media gurus will always need the most powerful analytical tools, the agile organization will empower every employee to do it, and will make it simple.
The Social Sites 2010 News Stream solution package is the E2.0 solution that combines SharePoint and RSS to deliver content more efficiently than email and other office productivity tools. News Stream provides your workforce with highly targeted information when and where they need it in order to reduce search time and speed decision making.
- Enable secure RSS feeds from news sites, blogs, wikis, external social media streams (e.g., Twitter, LinkedIn), and business applications (e.g., Microsoft Dynamics, Salesforce.com Chatter)
- Deliver feeds where your employees need them – within their communities of practice, on their mobile devices, and through their email clients
- Reduce information overload by streamlining smart feeds directly into your users’ workflows
- Increase portal and intranet usage by centralizing external, personalized information
NewsGator’s initial mission was to realize the potential of RSS (Really Simple Syndication) and to transform the way people consume information. RSS is critical to help connect people with the content they need. We’ve continued to pioneer the use of RSS to streamline and structure enterprise communications. It was a natural evolution to connect people with people, as well as connect people with the content or expertise they need to succeed.
Aggregating High-Value Information
Most knowledge workers spend a significant amount of time looking for relevant information on websites, portals, blogs, social media streams, and premium content provider databases. Industry indicators have found that workers spend up to two hours a day searching for information, and more than half of what they find isn’t relevant.
NewsGator Social Sites 2010 utilizes E2.0 technology to improve the efficiency and productivity of the average knowledge worker. Instead of searching endlessly for information or visiting multiple websites, the Social Sites 2010 News Stream solution package allows users to find valuable aggregated information as it is made available. Feeds can be established for management teams, employee groups, individuals, or even the entire organization.
Using News Stream for Social Sites 2010, users can also incorporate personal RSS and ATOM newsfeeds (e.g., Twitter, LinkedIn), as well as business applications (e.g., Microsoft Dynamics, Salesforce.com Chatter) into their social computing environment. This allows users to supplement news feeds selected by their organization, thereby tailoring their inbound information to their unique needs.
Benefits of Social Sites News Stream for information aggregation include:
- Condensed time spent searching for information
- Increased information relevancy
- Improved access to immediate knowledge of key information and insights
- Centralized business application activities, personal subscriptions, and newsfeeds to cater your activity stream to your individual needs and interests
