SmartStream™ Alliance (http://smartstreamalliance.com/) just released a desktop
newsreader for the Kerry campaign that uses technology from MyST Technology
Partners. This demonstrates a unique perspective concerning smart Internet
applications and the use of RSS in friendlier ways. Imagine the possibilities as
you experiment with this free
download.
The newsreader is not an endorsement of John Kerry as the Democratic
choice for President of the United States. Rather, it is an
opportunity to highlight SmartStream and MyST technology in a highly visible
application and in a way that will encourage new ideas for developing
syndication with brand experience. Behind the scenes, this reader makes
use of a variety of MyST technologies, including SmartSpace™, Market Syndication
Services (MSS), and Net Intelligence services.
The reader is available from many download sites, including this one at CNET:

Please take a minute to download the reader (it's very quick) and let us know
what you think. We encourage you to rate the reader on the CNET site after
you've tried it, especially if you like it! <g>. (Please
comment only on the technological aspects of the reader and not on your opinion
of the political content being delivered by the reader. We are
technologists, not politicians.)
Regardless of your party affiliation, this newsreader is a great way to keep
up to date with the latest news from the Kerry campaign. And more
importantly, it’s a demonstration of a new, user-friendly, spam-proof technology
for delivering timely, branded information on any subject matter. It
happens to be based on RSS, but mainstream users need not think about that. |
