(NASDAQ:IWOV), a global leader in content management solutions, today announced the TeamSite SitePublisher Component Contest, challenging members of Interwoven's developer community, DevNet, to build creative, flexible, and reusable Website components. The contest invites members of DevNet - which now numbers over 25,000 - the opportunity to leverage the simplicity and flexibility of the TeamSite SitePublisher framework to create new components. With this framework, developers can rapidly create and publish an unlimited number of Website components - including widgets for social media applications, rich media applications, and new forms of navigation. (Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20071205/INTWOVLOGO) Contest entries must provide marketing professionals with Website functionality that can be reused across a myriad of Web properties. The entries will deliver a more interactive and engaging online visitor experience - which may include areas such as social media, user-generated content, Web page design elements, and cross-platform integration. The TeamSite SitePublisher Component Contest is open to participants with a valid Interwoven Support Site account. The contest entry deadline is December 18, 2008. After that time, judges - comprised of Interwoven engineers, customer support, product management, and marketing - will assess each component entry based on its impact to online business, flexibility within a Website, and the ability to be reused across multiple Web pages and sites. Winners will be announced in January 2009, and the grand prize winner will receive two round-trip airline tickets to their destination of choice anywhere in the world.
