Adobe publishes a case study on NetApply

Excerpt: "Streamlining application processing at INSEAD’s top-ranked MBA program using the Adobe® Intelligent Document Platform [...] Etheryl devised a solution that could support the lengthy application document and the proper submission procedures.

Adobe releases Reader 7.0.2, fixes issues relevant to the use of NetApply

Adobe releases Reader 7.0.2, an update to its widespread Reader 7.0. It fixes a number of issues including one that displayed a misleading error message to NetApply's application form users. Interestingly enough, this issue was and is non-existant with Reader 6.x versions. Upgrade soon to enjoy the benefits!

Copy of my comment to David Teten's blog entry on Social Software landscape

Here is a copy of my comment to David Teten's blog entry on Social Software landscape:

Dear David,

Thank you for this map. It is very helpful to understand the wide ranging applications of this fast evolving field.
Please allow me to introduce ETHERYL S.A.S., a Paris-based company that I founded in 2001. We provide social software and solutions (the NetVestibule suite) to academic (from candidate to alumni), professional (corporate alumni) and associative entities.

In terms of your map, it fits in the “Enterprise” column, but belongs to a number of categories within the “Business Purpose” row, that is: RCM, Workflow (candidate and yield management at the pre-student level), Blogs (each account has a community-visible blog), Social Network Analysis (we help school analyze the online behaviour of the accepted student pool to determine the evolution of their yield and act upon it with built-in CRM tools), with a bit of career related management too! Overall though, it fits in the RCM category (to simplify).

We operate dedicated and fully managed communities for our customers as an ASP (software as rental/service). Some of our references include:
- INSEAD (France, Singapore) - the #1 business school outside the US
- Manchester Business School (UK)
- Manchester Worldwide - Distance Learning (UK)
- Trinity MBA (Dublin, Ireland)
- Club Proctérien (French alumni of P&G)
- European Professional Women’s Network (15 European cities, including Paris, London, Amsterdam, Vienna, Milan, Oslo, Stockholm, Madrid, etc…)

…

I look forward to reading your book; I have to check if it is available in France (or via Amazon.fr).

Best regards,

Yann Lechelle
CEO - ETHERYL
