a leading provider of content management software for the enterprise Web, and
ScreamingMedia, a leading aggregator and distributor of real-time content to
special-interest and vertical Web sites, today announced a strategic partnership
to bring fresh, customized content to portals and corporate intranets. The real-time
content from brand-name providers like the New York Times Syndicate, AP, Sports

partnership. Site editors can review the ScreamingMedia live news feeds and
pull relevant articles. These articles are then routed through Interwoven workflow
and published side-by-side with custom articles submitted by the company's content
contributors. Because news article selection is integrated with in-house content
creation, the overall publishing process is streamlined and editorial review
time is decreased.
