Evaluating the Success of Mergers in the Digital Content Industry

Mergers and acquisitions (M&As) can be a beneficial but challenging undertaking in any industry. Even after months of careful planning, businesses must monitor their M&A’s success to determine any necessary strategy changes in the future.

Sales content management systems (CMS) are crucial for organizing content assets and ensuring sales reps can engage prospective customers with the right content. Without a CMS, sales reps typically feel overwhelmed with the content they must choose during their sales process.

However, a well-organized CMS will help a sales team stay prepared throughout the sales journey, ensuring productivity and efficiency.

AI Content Conundrum: Sentiment Degradation Exacerbating the Misinformation Age

With industries across the board becoming increasingly adept at using AI-driven Large Language Models (LLMs) like OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Anthropic’s Claude2 and Meta AI’s Llama2, it begs one obvious question: How do we make sure all of the content out there isn’t generated by AI?

Such solutions will become crucial for those endeavoring to identify the use of AI in content creation, dealing with challenges related to false positives in AI content detection, discerning if AI material has yet been detected, and even if AI “distilled” content has been reconfigured to be more neutral in sentiment.

Moving to Drupal 10 in November

With support for Drupal 9 fast coming to a close, we'll be upgrading our various websites to Drupal 10 in the month of November. In April 2006, I chose Drupal to build this site, originally known only as CMS Report, with a beta version of Drupal 4.7.  Along the way, except for a detour in the 2010s when we relied on the Agility CMS for a few years, Drupal has been our content management system of choice.

For awhile I hosted a website focused on content management systems that in its peak easily received over 100,000 unique visitors a month.
