Newsdesk boosts media monitoring with new features

July 24, 2012 Moreover Technologies Leave a Comment

We have just rolled out new changes to Newsdesk to facilitate your media monitoring efforts.

Improvements to User Comments on the Dashboard
You can now see which articles have comments from other users directly on the Dashboard widgets. Click the icon next to an article to see the discussion from colleagues about a news topic and to add your own comments.

New Article and Source Metadata in Feed Export
The Rich Atom feed now provides additional metadata about the source and the article. It can be used to build up a client-side index of articles for more detailed media analytics.

It also allows clients to offer a richer end-user experience by displaying more information alongside article headlines, such as the country of a source.

Here is an example of an article with the new tagging:
