HomeYonkers, NY - August 24th, 2009: Jodange (www.jodange.com), --the world's first Opinion Utility-- today announced the inclusion of its "Opinion Utility for Publishers" in KMWorld magazine's 2009 Trend Setting Product list. This annual award highlights innovations that represent best-in-class products.
Jodange extracts and summarizes thoughts, feelings and statements from traditional and social media sources. Its "Opinion Utility for Publishers" powers in-article opinion analysis by re-surfacing opinions extracted from across a publisher's network of sites and includes those much ignored reader comments. The addition of this capability to the publisher's site dramatically increases the time on page. This is achieved by offering the reader a unique view into their interests at the point in time when they are most engaged.
"I believe the Jodange Opinion Utility for Publishers has great potential, and is a window into how content will be consumed on the web in the future," says Hugh McKellar, editor in chief of KMWorld magazine.
"This recognition from KMWorld reinforces our belief that by keeping publishers' content "alive" and relevant longer, publishers are able to engage their readers more deeply," says Larry Levy, co-founder and CEO. We're also connecting the publishers' content with opinions extracted from relevant 3rd party content, broadening their readers' overall experience.
