Frequency of different activities relating to news content appear to be relatively stable from year to year, in comparing the 2012 results of FreePint's Survey on News Needs and Preferences to previous years.

News Needs and Preferences: Preferred Features
24th December 2012
When selecting and using products and services to deliver news content, buyers and users can prioritise a wide range of variables -- types of content, delivery formats and ways that the content can be integrated into a workflow.

How Intranets can Help with Ambient Awareness
19th December 2012
Sharing small snippets of information about our daily lives and what we're doing has been a key feature of social networking tools for a number of years. More recently, organisations have started to look at how activity streams, status updates and microblogging tools like Yammer, Salesforce and Pulse could be used to surface content and details about individuals. Being aware of what an individual is doing through the use of social networking tools is usually referred to as ambient awareness and intranets have a big role to play in helping to develop this.
