Informing
Users with Announcements and News Items
Most organizations
have a way of distributing information and announcements to
employees. And email containing the information can be sent to
everyone, the information can be stored on some publicly
accessible network resource such as an Exchange Public Folder,
or the information can be printed in posted on Bolton boards
throughout the organization.
However, would it
be nice to have all company announcements and News items in one
place, easily accessible, and available for a set amount of
time? Would it be nice to be able to view only the applicable
information and not to have to see it through once you don't
care about? If users are going to the portal on a daily basis,
having important company announcements and News items right in
front of them where they can be removed or delete it is an
efficient way of disseminating information to the users.
Placing them in a portal also removes the load of sending
information to all users off the e-mail server. An expiration
date can be placed on announcements so that they can be on the
home page for as long as necessary and then automatically
removed.
