What's so special about the new version? It will include social networking features and functionality to enable businesses to build online communities and social networking sites.

The Social Networking Edition will be available with version 4 of the Kentico Web CMS. This new version is now said to be a complete solution offering content management, social networking and e-commerce in a neat little package.

Features of the Social Networking Edition are fairly standard for this type of solution. They include blogs, forums, polls, user-contributed content (wiki), groups, friends, message boards, content rating and improved membership management.

The solution handily comes with a Starter Community Site all ready to implement.

Also new for Kentico CMS is the support for Windows Live ID user authentication — Visitors to Kentico CMS-based Web sites can sign in with an existing Windows Live ID account, without requiring to create a new account.

While Silverlight 2.0 lacks adoption, plenty of users likely have Windows Live IDs, and this might end up being far more useful to the Kentico CMS, at least in a short-term outlook.
