We are pleased to announce an exciting new partnership with NewsRight the digital rights and content licensing organization based out of New York.
This first-of-its-kind agreement introduces a new model for aggregated use of news content published on the web, ensuring reliable, rights-cleared news content for customers, while licensing the intellectual property rights of hundreds of publishers. In addition, the NewsRight partnership opens the door to new, previously unavailable media metrics directly from publishers.
We are genuinely excited about the NewsRight deal – it represents a significant step forward in aligning the interests of publishers and the users of the content, as the publishing industry continues to evolve.
We’ll be sharing more details in the weeks ahead.

Newsdesk was designed to be intuitive and easy-to-learn, but sometimes we need a bit of guidance. Maybe you’re new to your company or missed an initial round of training. Whatever the reason, if you’re interested in training, contact Client Services. We have some suggested topics to get you going:
- General overview
- Creating searches
- Analytics
- Redistribution of content (XML feeds, email alerts, and newsletters)
We are continually adding new features and improving existing ones, so even if you’re an old pro, there may be a thing or two yet to learn.
Representatives are available from 8:30am GMT – 1:00am GMT (3:30am EST – 8:00pm EST), so we can accommodate a wide variety of schedules and time zones.
See our Newsdesk training page for more information.

Dear Moreover.com free feed users -
After much discussion, we recently took the decision that it was finally time to retire the original Moreover.com free news feeds. We’ve been serving our free feeds since 1999 (ahh, those halcyon pre-bubble-burst days), and it’s not without a touch of sadness that we call time on the service. We recently placed a notice at the top of the news feeds to try and alert our users that the service was going away.
The reason for the decision, in a nutshell, is that Moreover Technologies’ future lies with the enterprise market, where we’ve successfully provided media intelligence services for many years. In these economically challenging times, it no longer made sense for us to bear the running costs of the original free feeds.
So we wish to salute all our loyal news feed fans over the years!! We definitely made some waves when we launched our news aggregation service way back when, I guess you could say you caught one with us. Sorry we had to stop.
For those who are interested, we do have a fantastic enterprise offering, including high quality news feeds with many refining features. Contact us if you would like to find out more, on +1 703 650 1400 (US), +44 (0)20 7253 5003 (UK), email salesinfo@moreover.com, or visit our website at www.moreover.com.
Again, we wish to thank you for your loyalty and support during all these years, and encourage you to consider our enterprise service as an excellent alternative.
The Team at Moreover

Thank you to PSMG (Professional Services Marketing Group) for the article mention in their January publication of the Professional Services Management Guide.
Our own Fareita Udoh discussed how many companies operate in a complex media and information landscape and are dependent on a large number of information outlets for media content such as content aggregators, press monitoring agencies and free media tools.

Happy New Year!
In 2012 most of us are experiencing “big data” overload coupled with rising expectations to find the most relevant and actionable media intelligence in the least amount of time. It’s a challenge that’s only going to become more daunting.
That is, unless efforts are consolidated, coordinated and standardized to make the entire process simpler, faster and laser-focused on finding the most valuable information. Moreover’s Rossen Roussev has firsthand experience of how such a program enhanced both the quality and timeliness of information used by a major energy company, while saving them millions in the first year alone.

The SIIA just released their list of finalists for the 2012 CODiE awards. Moreover is in the running for an award in the category of Best Content Aggregation Service.
If you remember, this past January Newsdesk not only won Best Information Solution, but also took home the “best in show” award.
Since that time, our developers have been working away at improving Newsdesk. Moreover’s coverage of news has increased by 6000 sources and our vetted social media sources have doubled with more on the way. We’ve added the ability to search over news broadcasts and view the video of the results. Searches can be run over licensed and open content, and print articles with links to PDFs of the originals. Clients can add more sources on request, rounding out a 360 degree view of the news and social media landscape.
Here’s to an award-winning 2012!

We had our usual Newsdesk bi-weekly point release yesterday, here’s the summary…
- We’ve added user-level usage info to the new Admin section, showing nr of saved feeds / dashboard widgets / exported feeds / email alerts / newsletters
- Broadcast clips now show on a newly designed, much nicer looking page, with transcript text next to the clip. You can search US and UK broadcast alongside any other media type such as online news, blogs, social media or PDF print.
Newsdesk broadcast clip example
- On internal systems, we’ve extended premium content permissioning options down to user level (previously were at global account level), meaning specific users within an organization can receive licensed premium content while other users just access the standard search.
- Searching over blogs now includes blog comments where available (you can exclude them via the Refine panel)
- Various cosmetic improvements:
- The relevancy slider now sits at the top of the Refine panel
- The search result counts now show large numbers with commas (or dots depending on country)
- We trimmed the little button cluster at the top of the Refine panel section so it’s cleaner
- The row heights in the email / newsletter / email manager lists are now nicely uniform
- You can now add a Yammer widget to your Dashboard showing latest colleague comments – just go to the “My Content” folder’s drop-down menu to add it (an optional feature for those with a Yammer account)
We hope you like the latest additions. If you’re not a client and want to find out more then here’s the link. Ciao for now!

Here’s an update on the latest feature enhancements from yesterday’s Newsdesk point release.
Content is indeed king in the world of media intelligence (as indeed Bill Gates mused in 1996), so we put some of our attention this sprint on helping customers see exactly which sources we cover and how we rank them.
Here’s the full summary:
- A brand new “Coverage” section: A whole new area devoted to showing clients exactly which sources we index, and how we classify them, adding context to media analytics and giving confidence that we have key media covered. We’ll be building this out in the coming weeks to add more info and global harvesting stats.
Moreover Newsdesk Source Detail
- Yammer and Twitter integration: Now you can post links to Yammer, the enterprise social network service. You can also Tweet articles.

- Spanish helpfile: The helpfile is now available in Spanish, completing the Spanish user interface we released two weeks ago.
- A new Usage Stats section: We’ve also introduced a new stats section for Newsdesk admin users. Now you can see login activity across the account, view active users, and help get a gauge on ROI.
We hope you like the latest installment. If you’re not a client and want to find out more then here’s the link. Talk to you again in two weeks time!

Every other Thursday we release an update to Newsdesk, our media monitoring and enterprise news sharing service.
We’ve added some great new features based on customer feedback, and we’re especially pleased to introduce a case sensitive search option along with the ability to specify that your search terms must appear within the first X words of the articles.
Here’s this week’s full product update summary:
- Spanish interface: We now have a fully-fledged Spanish interface, which our client services team can switch on for entire accounts or just for individual users. (In due course we will make this an end-user setting so users can control it themselves.)
- New search options: Several new excellent search options on the newly named “Emphasis” filter (previously “Headline” filter) that can really help you zoom in on search terms and boost the relevancy of the results:
- Users can now select if they only want to search within the first X words of the article (first 100, 200, 500 words etc).
- You can now set the search to be case sensitive, so for instance “Shell” will match to “Shell” but not “shell”.
- And you can make the case sensitive search also be accented character sensitive, so e.g. “Nestlé” will only match “Nestlé”, not “Nestle” or “nestle”.
- The headline search options are still there as well of course. Here’s a screenshot:
Newsdesk Media Monitoring new Emphasis filter
- We’re also now showing Twitter user’s pictures (“avatars”) alongside the search results.
- We’ve made it a little easier to select folders when you save a search by showing the tree structure.
- The search results will now show you how old a story is in number of weeks, instead of just “1 month old”, to make it a bit clearer.
- Users can now delete up to a maximum of 2000 articles from a feed. Users can continue to delete stories, but after 2000 the oldest story will be undeleted to make way for the new one.
We hope our customers enjoy these latest updates, and stay tuned for our next release in two weeks time!
