Seems like it was only yesterday we were talking about IBM introducing a Quickr Content Integrator that will help move organizations away from SharePoint. Oh, right it was yesterday…

Today, we see that IBM may actually be wise enough to tackle the SharePoint challenge from both ends. Another IBM partner is helping to bridge the integration gap with SharePoint. The partner — Mainsoft. The solution — SharePoint Integrator for Lotus Notes. If you are one those organizations that has a mixed technology environment — and you are not alone — this solution will go a long way to help.

As we previously covered, wiki provider Socialtext, is expanding their offerings with two additions to their service, “Socialtext Dashboard” and Socialtext People”.

CMSWire had the opportunity to discuss these two recent additions with Chairman and President of Socialtext, Ross Mayfield.

Most of us take our vision for granted, but what about those who must rely on braille or aural web browsing devices to get their internet fix? UK CMS provider, Mediasurface, is making web accessibility easier to adhere to with the launch of the latest version of its enterprise-level, flagship CMS, Morello 5.7.

Its selling point is a number of new enhancements that help create and maintain XHTML Transitional or Strict websites. These changes are specifically aimed to help sites more easily adhere to the standards of W3C’s Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.

There were no fireworks, no fanfare or screams of “It’s Here!, come and get it!”. Last week, Alfresco very quietly released the newest version of their enterprise content management system. We here at CMSWire thought that was strange for such a well-known popular ECM.

So we contacted the folks over there. They told us that in a few weeks, Alfresco will officially, formally launch the release of Alfresco Enterprise Edition 2.2. Then they allowed us to grace the presence of their Chief Marketing Officer, Ian Howells, who taught us a few things about the impetus behind the release.

You can almost hear them now — those marketing guys in the Microsoft corner offices — gotta beat the competition…no…gotta squash the competition…How can we do it? Better product? No…cheaper prices…yeah!

At least that’s how we think it went when Microsoft was laying out it’s strategy for the release of Microsoft Dynamics Online.
