Share, Clip, or Delete articles directly from the dashboard.
More functionality at your fingertips. You can now use the Dashboard to edit feeds (clip & remove stories), comment on articles, and share headlines with colleagues (email and Yammer) or the world (Twitter).
Along with the ability to set the number of headlines in widgets, this update really turns the Dashboard from a ‘read-only’ section into a functional area where you can quickly check, edit and share stories across multiple feeds at once.
Easier-to-read saved feed names.
Easier than ever to identify which feeds are which, especially ones with longer names.
Broadcast info at a glance.
Broadcast clips now include the time of the clip in the headline title, in the local timezone, helping customers understand at what time the keywords and phrases they are tracking were broadcast to audiences.
Broadcast clips now show paragraph breaks in the transcript text where close captioning includes the relevant mark-up, making it easier to scan the video transcripts.
The award-winning Newsdesk service used by companies worldwide for media monitoring, competitive intelligence, and enterprise-wide news distribution launched new features this week! Read more about these new features and learn more about how Newsdesk gives marketing and corporate communications teams a powerful set of tools allowing them to turn unstructured mass media into actionable market intelligence:
Better Broadcast.
The TV broadcast coverage now includes ‘designated market area’ (DMA) data for local US TV channels. We are also showing keyword highlighting in broadcast transcripts for easier scanning, and have made improvements to the legibility of the transcript.
Power Search
Users adept at writing complex search queries can now use more advanced search engine parameters, for even more specialist and detailed search results. Contact your account manager to enable this new feature.
Refresh your dashboard
Update the articles in the feeds saved to your dashboard without having to refresh your browser.
Improved styling For Better Readability
The Dashboard and Saved Feeds list now sport sharper fonts and a cleaner layout, including thumbnail images, to make it easier to scan the latest headlines.
Rolling Out Shared Dashboards and User Comments
We recently announced “Shared Dashboards”, allowing administrators to customize a common Dashboard, and “User Comments”, enabling users to add comments to news articles. Tomorrow’s update will introduce these new features to all customers.
These are the new features that were rolled out earlier today. Thanks to our Development and QA teams for their hard work!
User Comments in Newsletters. Share comments from users in your email Alerts and Newsletters, and add the company’s view to news events. It’s easy to edit the styling to match your template.
Improved Dashboards. Share feeds between Group Dashboards and My Dashboard and collaborate on charts saved to a Group Dashboard.
Better Broadcast. Video thumbnails now make scanning Broadcast search results easier. Click on a search result to go to the relevant portion of the media clip. Click on a section of the transcript to jump to that part of the clip.
Earlier this week we posted a press release announcing the integration of Twitter in Newsdesk. Soon you can run your searches over TV broadcasts, thanks to our partnership with TVEyes.
Our company blog with the latest news, product updates, media intelligence insights, and other fine fare out of our Dayton (OH), Reston (VA), and London (UK) offices!
