Adobe Air News & Articles

Welcome to the February installment of our what's coming from the open source CMS projects in the next month.

If you're looking through here and feel that your project was left out, we invite you to send us an email at pr@cmswire.com with a pointer to who we should contact at your project for updates.

Vyre (news, site) has recently announced the latest version of their web content management system now supports Portlet Standards 2.0. But that's not all that is new.

WoodWing (news, site) adds social media integration, ad hoc editorial planning and social publishing features to its due-in-December enterprise publishing system, Enterprise 7.

Microsoft (news, site) hits the difficult third album with its would-be web framework king and development systems -- Silverlight 3 and Expression 3. What's new under the hood for those wanting to make a splash online?

You are probably spending a good chunk of your day on Tweetdeck twittering away -- it's addictive, we know. You may also be hanging out on Yammer Desktop with your co-workers yamming it up -- that we also know well.

But Adobe AIR can be used to build much more than a micro-blogging application and SocialText (news, site) has set out to prove it. With the SocialText Desktop you can view your SocialText Signals right from your desktop. But you say SocialText Signals is just another micro-blogging solution. No, SocialText says. It's a lot more.

Fresh off its most recent release, Nordic River (news, site), seeking to promote even more productivity and collaboration among its users, has launched a web-based version of TextFlow -  a sort of word processing collaboration Software-as-a-Service (SaaS).

Textflow for the web allows concurrent editing from multiple writers on the same text document, enabling users efficient and enhanced collaborative intelligence for any enterprise.

Document collaboration can be a headache. Hours can be spent sending out copies via email. Days lost waiting for revisions and edits to come back. And then additional hours combining all the changes into one homogenous document. TextFlow aims to minimize the pain of document collaboration with free online/offline collaboration software.
