We our excited to share with you an update regarding the upcoming release of CyberStudio CMS version 5. Below is a sneak peak, including some features that have been requested by several customers:

• Status Indicators
• Now you will be able to modify the status of Pages, Content Articles and Menu Links by setting the status to either "Active" or "Inactive." This gives you greater power to hide content, for example, by setting the content article to "inactive" without having to completely delete the content article.
  
• Switch Pages and Content Articles
  
• Need to move a Page to a different Directory? or move a Content Article to a different Page? Now you can easily "switch," for example, either a Content Article to a different Page with just a few simple clicks.
  
• File Management
• One of the most requested features since CyberStudio first debuted. We are pleased to announce the ability to upload documents and images to the new File Manager module (which will replace the former Image Gallery module). You will now be able to upload and manage files, such as Adobe PDFs, Microsoft Word documents, Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, Microsoft Publisher documents, and more.
• Page Updates and Menu Link Updates
• Now if you update the title of a Page, CyberStudio will check to see if a Menu Link is associated to that Page and ask you if you want to have the Menu Link updated.
  
• "Module Tips"
• Throughout CyberStudio a section of the interface has been designated to offer tips and suggestions. We hope this will assist you in using the features of CyberStudio to their fullest extent.
  
• Studio Community
• In an effort to allow users of CyberStudio share best practices with each other, we will be listing all the companies and organizations using CyberStudio to all the users. This is an initial phase which more resources planned for late 2010 / early 2011. If you organization does not want to be listed, please let us know.
  
• Social Media Networks
  
• To aide in disseminating information about updates of CyberStudio, the system is now integrated with Facebook and Twitter. Connect with us on those two popular social media networks to stay updated.
  
• New Interface and Security
• To top it all off, we have decided to introduce a new stylish interface for the system. Also there have been several changes to the security protocol of the system. This may initially require a password reset for each user of CyberStudio, but long term this modification will allow for new features planned for late 2010 / early 2011.

Follow us on Facebook and Twitter to receive more updates about CyberStudio version 5 as we become closer to releasing the new system.

We are currently planning the next version release of our content management system, CyberStudio. This will be version number 5. The current version (version 4) was released in June 2008. Below are concept sketches of the interface and layout for the new version release.

Last Spring the Purdue University President's Council (http://www.garofaloglobal.com/pctalentbank/) approached us and asked us to work on a project to help them strengthen the connection with Purdue alumni. The goal was to provide alumni with opportunities to give back to the University through methods besides financial, such as sharing their skills and expertise.

The idea for the President's Council Talent Bank was born. The concept was to provide Purdue faculty, staff, and students a method to "cast" alumni for volunteering roles needed. For example a professor teaching a senior design course could post an opportunity for alumni to volunteer to mentor students on their senior design projects. Another example would be a president of a student organization looking for an alum to be a keynote speaker at an organization dinner/banquet. The "opportunities" are endless through the variety of roles alumni can be cast.

Cyber View's content management system, CyberStudio, is running at the core of the Talent Bank to manage user accounts as well as the opportunities posted. Social media such as Twitter and Adobe Wave were utilized as a means to inform members when new volunteer opportunities have been posted and approved.Cyber View is proud to have worked on this project to help Boilermakers young and wise be able to connect through this on-line system.

Cyber View is proud to announce the launch of the Purdue University President's Council Talent Bank (http://www.garofaloglobal.com/pctalentbank/). Now Purdue alumni can contribute their skills and experience through the Talent Bank site by searching for volunteer opportunities posted by Purdue faculty, staff and students.
