Thunderstone Announces JavaScript Search Capability

Thunderstone Software announced the ability to index JavaScript hyperlinks and JavaScript dynamic content. The new capability is bundled with Thunderstone’s Texis search software and is available immediately. Sites have grown increasingly dependent on JavaScript-enabled browsers. But since most search engines cannot “see” JavaScript links, search-engine users are missing valuable content — often without knowing it. Texis also provides a broad range of other data discovery and indexing techniques. That includes indexing ‘deep’ information such as database content and newswire feeds, or even results from other search engines, all of which may be continually changing. Thunderstone is offering a free trial of the JavaScript link crawler through Oct. 30. The feature is included with Thunderstone’s Webinator web-site indexing product. Anyone who administers a web site may download a full working copy via the link on Thunderstone’s home page, at www.thunderstone.com

Documentum Announces Collaboration Edition

Documentum announced the Documentum Collaboration Edition, which includes two new product offerings, Documentum Team Center and Documentum Collaboration Services. The Collaboration Edition also includes Documentum’s Content Exchange Services, which include aggregation, distribution and cross-enterprise workflow services, to enable collaboration across businesses. Through Documentum’s integration of collaboration and content management technologies, users can initiate collaborative activities at any point during the content management lifecycle or add powerful content management capabilities to their collaborative initiatives. Project teams can work together in a common project area, jointly creating deliverables, addressing issues and managing schedules and resources. The deliverables, team output and related collaborative content are captured and securely stored, and can be later referenced and integrated with other enterprise content and processes. Documentum will embed collaborative features into the Documentum platform to make them available as Collaboration Services. Collaborative Services is expected to ship early next year. www.documentum.com
