Moreover Newsdesk New Features Update 01 Dec ’11

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.

• 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!
