Lancaster, PA — December 17, 2004
Nxtbook Media™ (NBM), a technology-based company that provides multimedia digital publishing solutions, today announced it has been named to EContent magazine’s 2004 EContent 100 list. In its fourth year, the EContent 100 is a preeminent listing of the companies that matter most in the digital content industry. Nxtbook Media™ is highlighted in the Content Delivery category for its ability to bridge the gap between online and print by delivering publications online with a similar feel to their print counterparts.
“The EContent 100 is an annual list of the leading companies we believe matter most in the digital content industry. Our readers--executives who manage online content strategies for their organizations--turn to the EContent 100 to find more effective and efficient solutions to their content challenges and we think that many organizations should be considering alternative digital delivery mechanisms like Nxtbook.” said Michelle Manafy, editor of EContent magazine. “Nxtbook Media was our choice for delivery mechanism for this year's digital edition of the EContent 100 issue and we look forward to our reader's getting a chance to check out the interactive capabilities."
The EContent 100 is assembled by the EContent magazine editorial staff, its valued contributing editors, and colleagues from Information Today, Inc. The list reflects the content industry’s activity and performance over the past year, and surveys the leaders and innovators from a wide spectrum of digital content disciplines, including content delivery, collaboration and knowledge management, digital rights management and consulting services, among others. The fourth annual EContent 100 can be found in the December 2004 issue of EContent magazine and online at www.econtentmag.com.
“We are honored to be recognized by the EContent editorial staff as a leader in offering innovative content delivery solutions for publishers,” said Spencer Ewald, Founder of Nxtbook Media. “Considering companies such as Google, IBM and Microsoft are part of the EContent 100, it is one of the most prestigious associations we could be a part of."
