Hi all,

Microsoft announced one new "geek toy" for us – the Microsoft Interactive Media Manager "is a next-generation digital content management solution that combines digital workflows and media application integration with a collaborative front-end environment".

For "sharepointers", is important to say that Microsoft Interactive Media Manager is one extension of MOSS (Office Sharepoint Server 2007) platform, and is designed specifically for the media and entertainment industry, including film and post-production studios, broadcasters, game developers, publishers, and advertising and marketing agencies.

Technically, I think that Microsoft Interactive Media Manager will work as one new solution package for MOSS. (Nice job!!!)

I would like to test this ASAP. J

• Media Library serves as a front end in which media content items in the digital asset management system are displayed as thumbnails.
• Media Viewer displays information such as annotations and time codes in Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers format and offers sophisticated, built-in playback controls. 
• Media Annotator allows groups of people to collaborate on media assets through video annotations, digital inking and discussions.
• Media Import facilitates the upload of media files and automatically launches associated workflows, such as information-gathering processes.
• Media Cart provides an individualized area for storing media assets that people want to edit themselves or push out to appropriate editors.
