Executive Daily Brief(TM) (EDB) Now Available from EBSCO Publishing


IPSWICH, Mass. --(Business Wire)-- Jan. 11, 2006 --

- Corporate Intelligence Resource Results from Partnership with Content Analyst Company -

EBSCO Publishing (EBSCO) today announced the release of Executive Daily Brief(TM) (EDB), the innovative and unique result of a partnership with the Content Analyst Company. EDB combines Content Analyst's patented Concept Search(TM) with the variety of premium content offered by EBSCO, to create a customizable business information monitoring and alert service like no other before it. With its intuitive, powerful interface, EDB expedites corporate intelligence gathering and dissemination in any industry.



EDB's Concept Search engine employs the same patented search technology used in the U.S. Intelligence Community today. With this technology, EDB enables users to search for conceptually-related content by entering phrases, paragraphs or entire articles into a search box. EDB then intuitively finds and retrieves the best available relevant information. EDB actually "trains" itself as it operates, creating a more intelligent search with each use. Users set up customized folders on topics or projects of their own choosing. EDB monitors more than 10,000 premium business sources each day and automatically places relevant articles into the appropriate project folders for review, based upon example documents, emails, or article that the user places in each folder.

EDB's extensive content repository includes business journals, current articles, and real-time business news from a wide variety of premium information sources. Along with EDB's own content resources, users may customize EDB's content by exposing other sources of data to the Concept Search, such as pertinent company documents and intranet resources.


EDB is ideal for Marketing & Brand Managers, Sales Personnel, Engineering and Research & Development Departments, Corporate Information Officers, Corporate General Counsel, and others seeking current specific information relevant to a given area of interest.
