FatWire Delivers 'Content Management for Everyone' with Latest Release



    FatWire Software, the leading provider of content management and
    delivery solutions for deploying persuasive Web sites and
    applications, announced today the general availability of FatWire
    Content Server 7, the latest release of its award-winning Web Content
    Management platform.

    "With Content Server 7, FatWire is breaking new ground by putting
    content management capabilities into the hands of anyone involved with
    eBusiness initiatives, making it even easier for them to design and
    deliver engaging, persuasive online experiences," said John Murcott,
    Vice President, Products and Strategy at FatWire. Content Management
    for Everyone means that:

    -- Casual content contributors can create, modify, and arrange
    content without learning new tools, and without even realizing
    they are using a content management system.

    -- Marketers can gain more ownership and control of the Internet
    channel and online experiences by defining personas and
    segments, tailoring the delivery of content to site visitors,
    and analyzing visitor behavior in real time.

    -- Companies can now facilitate bi-directional communication over
    the Internet by enabling site visitors to create
    user-generated content in the form of comments, reviews,
    ratings, and discussion forums. With the rise of social media
    and Web 2.0, the importance of site visitors to the expansion
    of the content ecosystem has risen dramatically.

    -- Developers and administrators, freed from doing work better
    done by business experts, can focus on rapidly deploying new
    initiatives and enhancing existing site functionality, further
    improving the ROI gained from using the Content Server
    platform.

    Content Server 7 delivers Content Management for Everyone through
    several new and enhanced features in its suite for creating persuasive
    online experiences. Content Server now has three interfaces that are
    designed to accommodate the different usage patterns and types of
    users in an organization:

    -- The Insite interface is streamlined for use by anyone who
    wants to manage content and page layout from within the actual
    pages of the site. In this WYSIWYG environment, users can
    add/remove/re-sequence content on a page, preview content
    changes, drag and drop page components, and invoke workflow
    processes.

    -- The Dash interface is designed for the frequent business user
    who wants intuitive, streamlined access to the content tasks
    performed every day. Users can create, compare and translate
    content for different locales and languages. Enhanced
    full-text search across all types of content makes it easy to
    find content that already exists.

    -- The Advanced interface for power users and developers should
    be familiar to anyone who has used the software application.

    Anyone that uses Web 2.0 sites is familiar with using tags as an
    incredibly easy way to group, organize, and get quick access to the
    most used content. Content Server 7 brings the concept of tags to
    content contributors and editors. Tags are user defined, so each user
    can choose tags that make sense to them. The same tag can be applied
    to different types of content, allowing you to group content any way
    you want, such as by campaign, project, or day of the week.

    FatWire's Content Server 7 allows companies to easily expand their
    web presence into global markets, while never having to worry about
    keeping different language versions of content synchronized.
    Multilingual support is built directly into the data model, so that
    any content can be translated into multiple languages. This greatly
    reduces language translation costs and complexity, while ensuring
    consistent branding across regions.

    Content Server 7 now has enhanced full-text search to provide
    faster access to content that users want to edit or copy, while
    reducing the chance of recreating content that already exists. Content
    of different types can be fully searched at one time, using familiar
    keywords and metadata. Companies can more easily repurpose existing
    content for multiple sites and channels. FatWire Content Server 7 is
    available immediately. If you would like to see a demonstration of the
    new user interface, please visit www.fatwire.com or contact
