Vote For NewsGator's New "Office"

By Melissa Risteff, May 21, 2008

NewsGator is going to the Enterprise 2.0 Conference June 9-12 in Boston.

We got ourselves involved in a contest in which contestants, all companies who will be at the show, had to come up with a short video that explains what their software does. Winners get to present their products onstage at the show.

Ours is a take-off of an episode of the popular NBC comedy series The Office that shows how our social computing software quickly hooks up people and information. Shot in our offices under a tight deadline with our own employees as actors (many of whom are seen for perhaps the only time in ties and suits), it is now online, and you can help us out by voting for it.

We are up against some formidable competition, and you have to scroll down a bit to get to our video. But my modest critic's assessment is that it's pretty darned funny.

If you agree, go down just below the video and register your appreciation by giving it the highest ranking. Every vote counts. And a tip of the cap to you in advance. - Leland Rucker
