Partnership with iUpload

By Melissa Risteff, May 04, 2006

As we mentioned in our Private Label Platform 2.0 post earlier today, we've partnered with the leading enterprise blogging company, iUpload.  The company has a lot of great customers such as McDonald's, New York Times Company and Knight-Ridder who are using their Customer Conversation System to give blogs to community members on their Web sites, both internal and external. 

As Robin Hopper, their CEO notes, "By integrating the leading enterprise RSS platform with the leading corporate blogging platform, clients will have access to a best of breed means of closing the publishing/alerting/consumption loop."

With this combined solution, publishers, associations, commercial Web sites, and even groups inside of companies can let their users create content through blogs and then give everyone a personalized, easy-to-use way to consume it.

We announced our first joint customer is the Columbia Record, in South Carolina. Look for more news about our relationship and customers in the weeks to come.
