Report Excerpt

The Web CMS Report 2009 looks at... e-Spirit FIRSTspirit

"Developers can work with their IDE of choice as the templates just reside on the file system. The templates are made from a combination of XHTML, proprietary tagging, and BeanShell, an open source Java scripting language. BeanShell is used to extend functionality and allows developers to define functions that can be called from within a script. While BeanShell is a popular testing and debugging tool, its spare syntax can engender a comparatively steep learning curve, and FIRSTspirit is the only product in this report to use it for templating or other logic. "

Intranet goodness times two

23-Sep-2008

In the crush to support public websites, I think (too) many Web CMS vendors are ignoring Intranet scenarios.

Nevertheless, the practice of managing Intranets continues to march ahead globally at a rapid clip. Today at KM World and Intranets 2008, I had the good fortune to catch up with several Intranet leaders and gurus alike.

If you care about Intranets, two things you should know about:

StepTwo Design has issued its second annual Intranet Innovations Awards. A quick perusal of just a handful of the global winners suggests that at least within some enterprises, Intranets are alive and well.

The folks at Prescient Digital are conducting a global survey on "Intranet 2.0," trying to measure and assess the impact of Web 2.0 tools on enterprise Intranets. With sufficient data, I suspect some revealing insights will emerge, so I hope you'll participate.
