Marqui CMS and Paid Blogging!

Marqui CMS and Paid Blogging! 04/14/2005 07:38 PM

As you all know I have been blogging for pay for Marqui for the past 4 months as that gig gets ready to come to a close I want to talk about what my feelings have been, and the feedback you all have provided.

First of all I really dug into the Marqui CMS seeing how easy or hard the application was, and if you do a search on this site for Marqui you can get me impressions. Next Marqui provided us with some very good case studies on companies that were running Marqui. They gave us access to what I assume were un-edited interviews. I covered a wide range of subjects some positive and some negative.

One thing we have always done and always will do is disclose when we are either being paid or have been provided a free software tool to try. There is news just today on advertising and content becoming blurred as their is a perception and I hope no truth to the fact that some bloggers and newsletter creators have not been fully disclosing when a financial relationship exist.

I continue to commend Marqui as they had their entire program open for the world to see. All of you took interest in the articles and also commended us for being up-front. My thoughts on the product continues to evolve and I continue to hope that Marqui introduces some blogging components to the application and make it priced in a way that would attract very small companies like mine as I could use it in a collaborative way and as a web publishing system.

They only complaint I have this round of the blogging for Marqui is the lines of communications were not as good. Marqui took the program over from the group that was managing it initially and have not really said very much in the last 30 days. I do not understand why as they were on quite a roll and had a great program, it seems this second round has not had as much sizzle.

If I were a company that was paying people like me to blog I would overload them with info, so that we would have a variety of angles to evaluate and consider our story topic instead of me writing how they should run their campaign.

Recently I had a fortune 500 company approach me, to write about a new product they were introducing, they wanted to pay me to blog but did not want me to disclose the fact I was getting paid. This would have involved writing 4 articles over a 2 month period. If I had agreed to do this, I could have paid for a dedicated server here for a year. It was real tempting considering or recent growth, thus I am consider other options to raise the $2000.00 a year that I am going need to put in place a solution that will carry us for the next 3 years.

The offer was tempting but I rejected it almost immediately. I tried to work with them on acceptable language but they would not budge and I guess if they were afraid to say they were paying me I really did not need them as a sponsors. Meanwhile I keep the deal I have made with all of you to disclose when I have been provided cash or freebies.

For those of you that have a small company and your webspaces and inter department communications are in disorder I highly recommend that you check out Marqui Content Management Systems. [Marqui]

Marqui my first Impression

Marqui my first Impression 12/19/2004 03:42 PM

Just like any good geek I like to dig right into a service or software package to see what surprises it holds for me. Geeks usually portray this type of behavior and we only go to the manual when needed, if your lucky enough to have one. But some people are not as technically blessed and many people either want or need to read the manual before using a product.

So when I evaluate a product, I also evaluate the documentation and look to see if the author has created examples of how functions are intended to work.

As I reviewed the online demo of Marqui I quickly clicked through the different tabs which contained functions that on initial inspection looked to flow well and were laid out in a way that a typical computer user would understand. A question did arise about a function in one of the tabs, I loaded the online help file and was impressed. So often today companies race to put a product together and skimp on the documentation which is beyond aggravating when you have spent your hard earned dollars on a advanced program or product. What I found on the Marqui demo was a concise explanation of the tool and a real world example on how to use it.

Wanting to test a theory, I had my wife take a look at the function and had her read the help file. Folks she has been a stay at home mom since we were married 10 years ago, but used to work at a major travel firm in Japan and has not been around modern business software tools. As she clicked through some of the other functions she mentioned it would have been real nice to have this tools available when she was in the workforce as it would have eliminated mounds of paper and increased productivity.

Case in point, one of the functions in the console tab is called Task Manager. This function is designed in such a way that a office staffer can create a document that needs to be reviewed at several levels before it can be approved for release to the general public. The creator loads the document onto the content management system and initiates a approval task to his superior. Upon initiation the superior will get a e-mail that their is a task for him or her to act on. Opening that task in e-mail will load the CMS Console allowing him to review approve/disapprove the document and add notes. If further review is needed by a superior the task can then be re-assigned to the next level. This keeps the approval process flowing and allows for quick changes to be made in order to get the document on the street.

As I dig deeper into Marqui over the coming weeks I will definitely refer back to the documentation. On a scale of 1-10 I think they have scored about a 8 in there online documentation. I did notice a couple of referral links that did not re-direct perfectly so I deducted a couple of points for that. It is important for companies to insure that all links in their online documentation take them to the intended link. The only thing I could see that could use improvement in the task manager section would be to develop automated routing rules for standard documents.

Most organizations go to great lengths to develop approval chop chains, most organizations use a folder with the document tucked inside to route it through the chop chain which is time consuming and wastefall of resources. Most approval chains are well established and do not change from day to day so introducing a chop chain routing rule in the task manager would be the icing on the cake. Or even being able to create one on the fly.

You can get more information about Marqui at www.marqui.com and if you are interested in becoming a developer for Marqui drop me a line at geek@geeknewscentral.com as I have the direct line to people who count at Marqui. I will ensure you get a call back. For those companies sitting on the fence about a Content / Communications Management System make sure you check back here often as I will be reviewing all of the features of the Marqui CMS platform.

After promising for almost two months - my good friends at Marqui have finally put up their corporate blog. We've hired a "conversation coordinator" to make sure that they reply to and listen to what people are blogging about them - and they've even opened up a 'dabble mode' version of the product - so people can play with it.

This Marqui program has taught me - that even when you design something to perfectly leverage the blogosphere and push the envelope - even the simplest of notions can go mis-understaood.

In the case of this Marqui program - the company missed the notion that we were setting up a pipeline - explicitely for the purpose of getting compelling stories and usage sceanrios out into our bloggers blogs.

With a piepline established - not only the corporate message - but success stories and on-going updates could be fed to our paid bloggers - utilzing their intellect and feedback to spread the Marqui meme.

But instead the entire program - up until now - has been filled with "talking about talking" - internal retrospective kind of blabber - which is typcial blogosphere filler - but not what we were hoping for.

But you can't blame our bloggers. They haven't really had anything to write about. That pisses me off. I'm bummed that Marqui hasn't come through with more compelling stories for our bloggers to blog about.

Maybe this post will push them into finding those stories and feeding them to us. We've gotten some press from our program - but the idea was not to just get press - the idea is to close sales and recruit developers. That's when we know this program has been successful.

And we can't get there without folks being able to try out the product and hear responses from Marqui's management. Well we can do that now. So NOW we're ready to launch this program!

Discovering Berkeley DB

Discovering Berkeley DB 11/25/2003 10:23 PM

I'm working on a project at the moment which involves exporting a whole bunch of data out of an existing system. The system is written in Perl and uses Berkeley DB files for most of its storage.

I'd never done anything with Berkeley DB before, but luckily Python has a module which seems to do all of the hard work for me:

>>> db = bsddb.btopen('xpand.db')
>>> db.keys()[0:10]
[':archives:index.html', ':art:test.html', ... 
>>> db[':art:test.html']
'template;front.tp\x01\x01'
>>> 

The Berkeley DB libraries are maintained by Sleepycat Software. Unfortunately, their site is completely saturated with marketing jargon. Our customers rely on Berkeley DB for fast, scalable, reliable and cost-effective data management for their mission-critical applications. Great - now what does it do exactly?

Some digging around turned up the real information: the Berkeley DB Tutorial and Reference Guide, which contains pretty much everything you could possible want to know about the technology. It turns out that at a basic level Berkeley DB is just a very high performance, reliable way of persisting dictionary style data structures - anything where a piece of data can be stored and looked up using a unique key. The key and the value can each be up to 4 gigabytes in length and can consist of anything that can be crammed in to a string of bytes, so what you do with it is completely up to you. The only operations available are "store this value under this key", "check if this key exists" and "retrieve the value for this key" so conceptually it's pretty simple - the complicated stuff all happens under the hood.

It seems like a great alternative to a full on relational database for simple applications, although I'm slightly confused by the license which allows free use for open source products but requires a license for commercial applications. Does that mean that if I use the bsddb Python module in a commercial app I need to get a license from Sleepycat?

Discovering Dickens

Discovering Dickens 01/24/2004 03:55 PM

Stanford is bringing back its popular Discovering Dickens community reading project -- another example of what's possible with a healthy public domain. (In other words, don't try this with anything much more modern.)

In December 2002, Stanford’s Discovering Dickens project began with the serial release of Charles Dickens’ novel Great Expectations. By the time the project concluded in April, 2003, it had enjoyed success far beyond what we had anticipated. Interest in the project, which has attracted participants from around the country and around the world, has remained keen, and we are happy to announce our next project: Discovering Dickens 2004.

Between January 9 and April 16, 2004, Discovering Dickens will rerelease the facsimile of Dickens’ famous novel of the French Revolution, A Tale of Two Cities. In April, 1859, the first serialized part of A Tale of Two Cities provided the lead piece for Dickens’ new periodical All the Year Round. On the strength of this weekly serial, contemporary Victorian readership had swollen to 100,000 before the novel concluded in November, 1859.

Dickens himself played an interesting role in international copyright's development, back in the day when the U.S. was a pirate nation. (1, 2, 3.)

Marqui bl0g makes it debut 01/03/2005 03:40 AM

It took awhile but Janet Johsnon has finally gotten Marqui to start blogging - even if it's just her for now. Eric Rice noticed immediately.

Well at least it's up - and it made it up by the end-of-the-year demand that Roland Tanglao made!

Richard MacManus is bascially just being lazy, (my fault) and I'd say there's certainly unrest in Marqui blogger-land. I just wish Richard would look beyond the blogging tools he's addicated to - and realize that technology gets used by LOTS of people - not just bloggers.

Marqui is not FOR blogging, we're just hiring bloggers to blog about it.

In general I'd say it's time for a "conversation coordinator" to come to the rescue!

Can the Marqui CMS Platform make a small
company look big

Can the Marqui CMS Platform make a small
company look big 02/05/2005 10:16 PM

I am a paid to blog about Marqui see the last paragraph for my disclaimer!

I get phone calls from time to time from sales reps or customers asking to speak to someone in sales and I say you are on the phones with sales, the next call could ask for the CEO and I say he's speaking. I am sure you all get the point that their are a great number of small companies out including mine that are basically mom and pop shops.

I have a friend who has a small company with 3 employees, he does 99% of his business on the Internet. He said when people call they imagine they are calling a bigger company, with rent so high here in Hawaii they are in fact working out his extended family room in his home. He has accomplished this selling Hawaiian products via the Internet. He attributes his success to a website that is very much up to date and contains new content on a regular basis.

So I described in detail the Tools that Marqui has built into their CMS product, and asked him if he is able to leverage anything he has built into his current website infrastructure that will match what Marqui has available today.

He said no and nervously laughed. I went on to talk about Marqui, he was intrigued and agreed with my line of thinking that I have developed over the past week. My thought was this, if I were opening a new business and wanted to assure that my branding and office communications management would be in place from Day 1 I would be a fool not to employ a CMS solution. I have came to that conclusion by playing with their demonstration site.

Looking back at some business ventures I have been involved with in the past, I realized I would have slept better back then, knowing that from the outside at least those new ventures would look like a seasoned company.

Having worked with collaboration tools like Groove before, I realize now that Groove may have been great for internal discussions and decision making, but it sure would have been sweet to have had a web component that Marqui has.

I originally thought Marqui was only for big companies and the more I look at it, the more I think it may have more bang for the buck for a small company than a big one. I would recommend if your a small company that is getting smashed in the market place and you think it is because your web site is not keeping up with technology changes, then you need to talk to the folks I know at Marqui.

Feel free to e-mail me at geek@geeknewscentral.com and I will get you hooked up with the people that count. [www.marqui.com]

As a disclaimer I am paid to blog about Marqui and have spent considerable time digging into the features and procedures that it utilized to manage content and the communications tools. As part of our contract we are told we can write anything positive or negative about the product. It has been my goal from day 1 to give you my honest and fair assessment of the product.

The Price of Admission to the Marqui
Content Management System

The Price of Admission to the Marqui
Content Management System 01/05/2005 03:59 PM

As I have been traversing the Marqui Content/Communications Management System as one of their paid to blog, webloggers my thought process has continually drifted back to how effective would this tool be for a small business. Hence the question in the interview yesterday. My initial conclusion is that it would be very effective.

My second thought was how much is it going to cost. I guess most business owners would probably ask that question first. I like to be able to buy a product and own it. I tend to shy away from re-occurring cost it's easier for me to swallow a one time payment even if it is going to be a big one, in that I know there will be few surprises down the road.

Currently the Marqui CMS pricing is based around a subscription model. Honestly I don't care for it. The tool is terrific but will it increase my organizations productivity enough to support the subscription fee. Hunting around the Marqui site I was unable to find a pricing model, this has a tendency to make me wonder why. So as a objective paid reviewer of their service I am going to suggest a couple of things.

1. Put pricing on your website
2. If it is as I suspect structured on the features you implement build a table with that pricing broken out.
3. Consider a one time flat rate purchase for the product.
4. Better yet have both models to fit the needs of all business owners.

I realize this may not fit their current business model but from the perspective of a small business owner I think it would help you gain market share in areas that they are not currently penetrating. [Marqui]

Marqui modifying the content was as easy
as using Microsoft Office

Marqui modifying the content was as easy
as using Microsoft Office 12/27/2004 03:11 AM

Being a content type of guy I dug deeper into the Marqui CMS system by seeing how easy or difficult it would be to change the content on the main page of the demo website.

We all know that for any business to have a successful website it is important to be able to quickly modify, and add content to the site. Too many times I have came across a companies website that had old content on it this gives a terrible first impression.

So my thought process was this. If I am a business owner and I am using the Marqui Communications Management System how fast could I update or change the layout on the main page.

When I logger in it took me 3 clicks to bring up the main page content editing window. In that window I could change the Page Title and Subtitle. I could then delete the entire content of the page and add new graphics and content with active html links using modern editing tools within the editing window. The following editing tools were available Bold, Italic, Underline, Right/Left/Center Align, Create Bullets and List, decrease and increase the indent, insert graphics, link html, insert a form, inset a table and a few other options to choose font etc. Additionally if I wanted to change the banner I could choose from a list of pre-designed banners and also add Promotional links.

Something that I found in this package that I have never seen in any package before was a way to add metadata that help search engines index the page correctly. Many times even on this site I wish I could have unique metadata for each article in our archive. This is built into Marqui CMS and I was impressed.

How many times have you made changes to a page and kicked yourself real hard because you made a mistake. Well they have thought this through, the system keeps a copy of previous revisions so that you can roll back with the click of a button if a mistake is found.

Keeping with the idea that Marqui is used with various types of companies the administrator can set permissions on who can modify what pages. So if a mail clerk is angry and about to get fired he cannot go into the management system and deface the main page. The system also tracks who has given permissions to ownership of the page.

I think what blew me away the most was the ability to add menu items on the fly and easily re-arrange the stacking of the menus.

Last week Marqui responded to a concern I had with their help system and have assured me it is in the process of being updated and even gave me a projected completion date. I will check back on that date and see how they have progressed. I am extremely encouraged that they are responding to my comments. I keep trying to find something that I don't like and thus far I haven't but I am going to dig deeper into the actual architect of the system next week and see what I can find.

Disclaimer: I am paid by Marqui to Blog about their product. I have vowed to all of you to give a honest opinion of the product and will point out anything I find that does not meet my expectations. I encourage companies looking to roll-out a Content Management System to look at Marqui. I am your direct line to the people that count at Marqui, and I can expedite your getting an account to try the same features that I am reviewing. Developers need to be aware that Marqui wants to work with you. So drop me a line and I will hook you up. [Marqui]

Marqui has chalked up another award by winning a 2005 InnoTech Innovation Award. For the full details check out their press release.

I am paid to blog about Marqui and their Content/Communications Management System. Today concludes 3 months of paid blogging. I have chosen to continue for the next 2 months and will only be producing a few articles a month. My plan is to try and make those reviews very significant. Marqui's paid to blog program has been interesting in that the company stuck their neck out on the line and allowed everyday bloggers to write what the felt about the company and the product line.

I congratulate them for being forward thinking and I thank all of you for the wonderful feedback on the program over the past 3 months.

It's not just the music and movie industries that seem to have a hard time dealing with the internet. Book publishers are now freaking out that Amazon.com sells used books alongside new books, and suggests this is the "Napster of the book industry" even if nothing illegal is happening. An Amazon representative points out their worries are overblown. Indeed, many more people are buying used books, but they're often doing so to experiment with and discover new authors or genres -- which leads to them buying even more new books. Either way, the industry has framed the issue incorrectly, calling it a "problem," rather than looking at how it could be an opportunity. They also don't seem to believe that (just as with the music industry) one reason why sales may be down is that people have many more options (surfing the web, playing video games, watching TV, going for a walk, etc.) than just sitting around and reading a book. Perhaps it's more of a marketing problem than anything else.

While much of the blogging world has been ga-ga over getting into the Democratic National Convention, it's tough to find anything interesting going on among the convention bloggers (to their credit, go turn on CSPAN today and see for yourself how boring it is). While our own Jessamyn is there (here are profiles of everyone going), I've found the strange CNN/Technorati partnership to be the most useful thing. Technorati founder David Sifry is basically doing a metafilter of all convention blogs over on CNN as the daily blog roundup, highlighting the posts worth reading among the participants.
