eBay (NASDAQ:EBAY), the world’s largest online marketplace, today announced an agreement to use Joomla, the most popular open source content management system (CMS), to launch a community portal as part of eBay's internal analytics platform. eBay is leveraging open source for employees and supports an ongoing commitment to driving innovation across the business.
Known as “community analytics,” the initiative will be accessible by eBay’s 16,400 employees, and will incorporate social aspects of active collaboration, including content creation, sharing and open discussion. Joomla CMS supports eBay’s expansion of community-oriented knowledge sharing and information discovery.
“eBay has always made it a key priority to encourage employees to collaborate and drive business innovation,” said Bob Page, eBay vice president, analytics platform, “We are working with the open source community to elevate insightful ideas and innovations across our company, from our greatest resources, our employees.”
With the largest commercial data warehouse in the world, more than 100 times larger than the Library of Congress, eBay requires immense computing capabilities to mine and decipher actionable data. The new community analytics initiative enables employees to source and analyze massive amounts of data to power ideas and learning across the company. eBay will also contribute back to the open-source community.
“eBay is a welcomed addition to the Joomla open source community,” said Ryan Ozimek, president of Open Source Matters, a not-for-profit created to provide organization, legal, and financial support to the Joomla project. “With such a large data demand, eBay is pioneering open-source employee-based projects for the enterprise.”
The announcement coincides with Joomla Day USA West 2010 being held on the eBay/PayPal North campus in San Jose, Calif. today through Sunday, Oct. 3. The event is showcasing the latest developments and best practices within the Joomla open source community, including a speech from Oliver Ratzesberger, senior director of analytics platform at eBay.

Web Site Cyber Attacks on the rise - Many attacks are the result of Outdated software

ScribbleLive today launched the latest version of its live content management system (CMS) to help journalists spread news in real time. Social media services deliver information at a rapid pace. ScribbleLive enables media companies to harness the immediacy of these technologies while maintaining the control required in the newsroom to cover developing news events in a new style that meets the needs of its audience – fast, engaging and collaborative.
ScribbleLive is a comprehensive live CMS platform that enables media companies and large organizations such as Reuters and Hearst Television, to report on developing news stories like natural disasters, sporting events and election results in an entirely new way online. Journalists can now report story elements from e-mail, SMS, Twitter, voice call or the ScribbleLive web interface – whether in the newsroom or out in the field. The result is dynamic content that provides real-time updates, including multimedia, to readers as the event unfolds.
The event pages reside on ScribbleLive’s servers, but otherwise maintain a seamless appearance with the organization’s existing website – to both visitors and search engines. After the event, the searchable webpages remain, so readers can look back on the way the story unfolded – a unique opportunity to see a “rough draft” of history as it was first written.
“People want news delivered quickly – They are turning to social media sites such as Twitter to access breaking information, rather than waiting for news outlets to push stories through editorial review,” said Michael De Monte, co-founder and chief executive officer, ScribbleLive. “ScribbleLive changes the traditional linear flow of the newsroom to a more dynamic, collaborative process that empowers real-time reporting and audience engagement while ensuring editorial control and journalistic integrity. With our tool, journalists are able to tell stories in a completely new way.”
This latest version of ScribbleLive offers powerful new features that:
•	Let journalists leverage mobile devices to create stories in the field via enhanced publishing capabilities through SMS and voicemail, as well as mobile apps for iPhone and BlackBerry •	Better harness information from Twitter with advanced filters •	Employ SSL to improve data protection •	Allow syndication of posts to multiple web properties •	Lay the groundwork for a revolutionary new way of telling stories and engaging with readers online
A number of media outlets already rely on ScribbleLive. Global News, the online news arm of Canwest’s Global Television Network, used ScribbleLive to cover the G20 Summit that was recently held in Toronto. Highlights of the summit coverage included:
•	Reader-submitted protestor photos •	A dramatic audio report on rioting in the streets •	Videos of police creating barricades •	Text updates from around the summit
“Globalnews.ca’s live coverage of the G20 broke historic new ground for storytelling in broadcast and online journalism,” said David Skok, managing editor for Globalnews.ca. “ScribbleLive gave us the opportunity to showcase the depth of our talented reporting teams in real-time using multimedia via one-touch reporting. We have realized our vision of unifying the digital and traditional broadcast newsrooms, thanks to ScribbleLive.”
The Score, the broadcaster that delivers interactive sports reporting online and via the popular ScoreMobile iPhone app, uses the ScribbleLive platform to report real-time scores for the more than 300 sports teams it covers while empowering superfans to become the play-by-play commentators.
“ScribbleLive has truly helped us enhance our product. For our mobile sports app, live blogs have been a crucial differentiator. Sports fans love the immediacy of the blogger’s game description and appreciate being able to submit their comments. ScribbleLive’s system is fast and reliable, and they’ve made it remarkably easy to fully embed in our offering,” said Dale Fallon, director of mobile, Score Media.
ScribbleLive works in concert with existing CMS platforms. It is offered as software-as-a-service. The new version is available now. Pricing depends on the desired plan. Contact info@scribblelive.com for sales information.
About ScribbleLive
ScribbleLive is a groundbreaking content delivery platform that gives the new web generation what they want – news now.

A serious vulnerability was found in Microsoft's ASP .Net web development framework that is described as follows:
<blockquote>
in Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and above, this vulnerability can be used by an attacker to retrieve the contents of any file within the ASP.NET application, including web.config”  and that “this vulnerability can also be used for data tampering, which, if successfully exploited, could be used to decrypt and tamper with the data encrypted by the server
</blockquote>
Being that the severity of this patch is too high to allow them to wait until their next cycled patch release, they instead chose to release the following emergency fix: <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS10-070.mspx">http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS10-070.mspx</a>.

appRain is a Opensource Content Management Framework (CMF). CMF is a new web engineering concept where “CMS (Content Management System)” and “Framework” perform together to produce endless varieties of output in a very limited time.
Official Website: <a href="http://www.apprain.com">www.apprain.com</a>
appRain, published with lots of extensive features to reduce our development work time. It satisfies both Client and Developers with a safe and quality output.
So what actually it do?
 
It really a big question when any new tool introduce in community. CMS and Framework are very popular and stable terms in this generation. That support us to meet our requirements have two different type of functionalities. Both this two tools offer different modularized facilities to get your work done. But CMS always fix a client withing graphical interface so, Some time it become difficult to have little extra features that actually that system does not support. At that moment we generally get rush to find our any extension of that specific CMS that almost smiler to to our requirements or try to develop a bridge with another CMS that actually have that facilities. For example Integrate an e commerce script with an Article management system.
Another scenario is little bit better when we use Framework. It can open your edge of development so you can develop all modules as you like. But all tools integrated with Framework is core programming oriented. So you have to develop each section by yourself no matter you are developing a 5 page website or a complex application. You have to re-develop so many module that you do in each project or sometime we copy a part from other project to quick development but again wast time in garbage cleaning.
appRain generate it's concept from all these frustration and after a years of experience. Here we have a part that we call CMS with rapid development tools base on XML definitions and EAV model that will save your time and second part is Framework that is a strong tool based on MVC, Single Tone, Factory and lots of other popular patterns. Developer will complete the work with the help of both tool so your application will not stack any more.
appRain also extend about and plug able with other application in a very easy way and lots libray and extension will reduce your tension. Beside these, we are waiting for you to reply your answer, just post your query in ticket section.

SEO Toaster is a product by a company called SEO Samba and is touted as “Most advanced SEO CMS &amp; Ecommerce website builder right out of the box, free and open source”.Does it actually stand true to this statement? Let's investigate.You can download the product from the SEO Toaster website (link at the bottom of this review).Once you've installed the product (a fairly painless process) you are greeted with a rather plain page:As you can see in the screenshot above, it states that there is no admin area and you can edit text immediately by “clicking here” except there's nothing there.  Typically, if you had first authenticated yourself, you'd actually see something where the arrow is pointing. If you have not, however, you would be totally lost.There is no easy hidden link to authenticate and if you installed the system and wanted to come back to it in a few days, you may not remember that the path to the authentication screen is http://yourdomain.com/go which could leave you stumbling around frustrated for a few before you can find the way in.Is this a game breaker? Of course not, but it is something that I think needs to be corrected or improved on.Let's assume now that you have authenticated yourself, you would see a small box with a letter in it and the screenshot above explains their meaning.Once you are logged in, you will have a “show/hide dashboard” function as shown below:<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/recitecms-2_rt2hjo.jpg" />True, it might not be the most attractive looking dashboard, but it works and is fast to navigate the options which is what matters.Browsing through the functionality we have a number of menu options. The screenshot below shows the configuration management screen where you can make minor config changes:<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2021/07/seotoaster3_vspgsr.png" />Template editing is also supported:<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2021/07/seotoaster4-580x419_niiedm.png" />There is also a quick screen for editing your pages properties as well with all of the necessary SEO functions available to edit:<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/symphony-1_lbgd2d.png" />One of the nice new features they've added is shopping configuration which also has it's own quick config screen and looks rather easy to use:<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/symphony-3-580x592_swhqve.png" />Ok. Now that we've shown you some of the pages, let's talk about what we liked and disliked about this product and perhaps this will help you decide if it's the right fit for your needs.First let me say that this is a really fast website builder. It is very quick (mostly due to the lack of graphics) and works as it should for the most part. It has a good chunk of functionality and includes the most common SEO functions one would expect.The addition of the payment integration is nice but currently only supports PayPal which is a bit limiting. However, at least it has some form of ecommerce functionality.I would not, however, call this the most advanced SEO and eCommerce website builder available and that's the part that I am struggling with. I most certainly think it's a good product and it appears to have tons of potential, but I see no advanced SEO functionality that is different from any other website builder or CMS I've tested. Also, considering the ecommerce options are limited, it's not really right to call that piece advanced either.Are these issues with the product? No.Does this mean you should avoid it? Absolutely not.In fact, I would recommend you test it out and provide feedback to the SEO Samba team so they can improve the product. I think functionally, it's a very good system with a ton of potential that is just waiting to be fully realized.Sure, they jumped the gun a bit with their motto but that's part of marketing and you can't fault them that.<h3>Summary</h3>Pro's<ul><li>Really fast</li><li>Very easy to install</li><li>Easy to use</li></ul>Con's<ul><li>Needs some visual changes to give it a more professional look. (it's hard on the eyes).</li><li>Needs a login button or link somewhere.</li></ul>Wanna try it? Get your copy here: <a target="_blank" href="http://www.seotoaster.com">http://www.seotoaster.com</a>
