Comment on Your Intranet - “Remake!” by Emrah Omuris

I still didn’t see the film, but I am planning to do it next weekend, hopefully. It is shame that Odeon is protesting the movie so I have to go down to Marina to see it. But I think it’s worth it.

As a former Claromentis employee, I believe the passion and enthusiasm that every single member of Claromentis has towards their product and the future of intranets.

PS: There could not be a better tagline / picture for this blog by the way. Well thought.

Comment on The most frightening thing for an intranet user by Michael Christian

We can of course load them up with “lorem ipsum” but I bet one of the users is going to ask “Can it be in english please?”.

Comment on Granular permissions or simply over protective. by Nigel Davies

Nigel Davies — Sun, 14 Feb 2010 22:50:35 +0000

A great post that I know has been simmering away for a long while.

It does raise serious questions - how to maintain intranet usability and yet meet the demands of precise functionality.

How would we mock up that permission box - or at least a half way house - with the ability to keep it simple if that’s what we need - as we do 99% of the time..

I am not getting the recent tweets as per your screenshot. The very first result of my search is “Claromentis Ltd”, which is third as per your screen shot. I am using Firefox.

Comment on New Claromentis Intranet Components by DanMunn

@robertr This would be entirely possible however would need to be run from the background process, as opposed to through a component - remember a component is only run when people visit a page it is active on, meaning someone could end up getting a notice 3 days after the due date due no-one activating the component.

If you’ve got the flexibility available to run this through a cron, then yes it’d be entirely plausible.

Comment on News Channel “Cloud” Component by Dan Munn

Nigel,

In response to your questions - It would be possible, however would need updating to include relevant subscription information into query - from there, it’d need to do the math calculation on those figures instead of using the total number of posts by channel. In that particular instance you could wrap an if based on a parameter, returning a different query object to run through the database - if you kept the naming convention on the count() operation uniformed, it’d allow you to run the same math procedure just using different a different query to form the basis for the figures.

Regards,
Dan Munn

Rob,

This component is not a smart object, so can be shown on any page in exception of publish pages at present (through template editing)

Comment on News Channel “Cloud” Component by Nigel Davies

Nigel Davies — Tue, 22 Dec 2009 09:29:13 +0000

I have another question (Sorry!)

I imagine we are varying the font according to the number of posts in the channel - which is very useful.

Is it possible to vary it according to the number of subscribers instead? So the most popular according to the users, instead of the most active in terms of posts?

Hi Craig - I’m from the Australian branch, so first of all, welcome! Quickly, we’re a big fan of the concept of news channels and will certainly be using this new code with a couple of our clients.

One question though - where are you displaying this information? Just on the homepage?

Great post Craig, and thank you for sharing the before and after visuals. Design changes based on real world experience at the coal face are invaluable.

Comment on What’s that coming over the hill?? by Michael Christian

Michael Christian — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 06:52:00 +0000

It is a wake up call for many corporations, if they don’t have any strategy in the arena of volatile collaboration (AKA: as social networking, micro blogging), the raising facebook and tweeter generation in the workforce will find a way to express their thoughts, ideas, comments outside the traditional channels, which is outside anyone’s control. I heard many stories about organisations in such a panic because they don’t know who the h*** created company page/group in facebook and it has become ‘live’ community far more interesting than their own dying intranet.

The knowledge management space is full of words that have more than one meaning. Perhaps a page on the Claromentis wiki would be good so we can all share our thoughts on such words?
