CAMARILLO, CA -- October 23, 2006 -- WebsiteASP, Inc., the leading provider of web
content management systems (CMS) for Higher Education, today announced the
release of OU Blogs, a unique blogging solution that combines the power of
WordPress, a "best-of-breed" open source blog publishing system, with its
OmniUpdate solution.
"We've seen growing interest from our customers in sponsoring student,
faculty and even parent blogs. But while blogging tools are readily
available and often free, there's still the issue of how to easily monitor
and manage the content on these blogs," said Lance Merker, President and
CEO of WebsiteASP, Inc. "That's why we've developed OU Blogs. It integrates
one of the leading free blogging engines, WordPress, with OmniUpdate to
provide a single, comprehensive solution for managing all of an
institution's web content -- including blogs."
Offered as an optional module to OmniUpdate, OU Blogs allows entries in
WordPress blogs to be easily monitored using OmniUpdate's flexible workflow
and approval system. Email notification is automatically sent when blog
entries are ready for approval, encouraging bloggers to create timely,
genuine content while ensuring that only appropriate content is published
to the website. Additionally, OU Blogs streamlines and simplifies blog
management by providing a single, consistent interface for managing both
web pages and blogs.
"It's not uncommon to find WordPress already used somewhere on campus for
blogging," observes Mr. Merker. "And, that's why we've chosen an open
approach to supporting blogs rather than inventing our own proprietary
tool."
OU Blogs is available immediately and is offered in configurations both
with and without support for WordPress.
WebsiteASP, Inc., the company behind OmniUpdate, is the leading provider of
web content management systems for Higher Education. Over 450 college and
university websites use OmniUpdate to simplify the process of creating,
editing and publishing over 3 million web pages.
