Hey hey everybody… Globalcitizen coming at you from empressr offices!
Why the silence you ask? well, we have been hard at work working on the next release.
We have COMBED THE DESERTS! (not literarily) More like, we have listened to all the feedback that you all have been providing. And let me just say, it’s been AWESOME. Pat yourselves on the back — you all have come up with very very creative suggestions.
And guess what! We listened! We learned! and … we’ve coded!!!
This upcoming release, is quite possibly the largest feature release we have ever put together.
So, stay tuned, log in, tell your friends, because THIS release will have a limited-time offer associated with it. No, this is not a advertisement for the Slap Chop. There are really exciting things happening, and I want to make sure you all get this feature the second it comes out.
Globalcitizen… OUT!
Once again Microsoft has released some press around the vulnerabilities of their office suite, where bad peeps can execute code from a well formed document and take control of your computer. Are we getting tired of this yet?
So if you insist on using those products, please update the latest patches, or you could just delete the installation and that will solve the problem now and into the future.
Since losing my harddrive last week in my MacBook Pro, I have been living off the net without any software installed other than a web browser, while it was initially inconvenient, after 5 days I’m starting to enjoy it. Give it a try, there are a lot of alternatives out there in the cloud, you might be surprised.
If not the latest patches can be found here
Here it is, Empressr Lesson Series #1. Media: Uploads, Importing, and Creation!
The team here at Empressr is always working to make sure your experience with the Empressr platform is the BEST possible. Here is the first of a series of story boards designed to help you use some of our most exciting key features. Enjoy!
Empressr has been privileged to have users from most every neck of the woods imaginable. The INSANE variety of stories posted every day never ceases to amaze us and reinvigorate our excitement for the application.
Well, beyond business implications, among the largest constituents of all presentation tools are students and teachers. Where once teachers were more apt to use classic educational methods, these days it seems more and more base their entire course plan around presentations they have made.
In fact, many are taking the initiative, getting their students engaged with new programs as they come out. They are not only using technology to facilitate education but positioning their students to be ahead of the curve.
A perfect example popped up in Empressr today. Teacher/Empressr user “Iritzel” posted an assignment for his students to review a recent tech article, create a basic Empressr about it, and then use the variety of tools we provide.
Check it out!
In my hast to start the weekend last Friday, I created my Empressr showing the new Adobe Kuler integration on our staging server, which of course is not accessible from the outside. My Bad. So here it is!
Today we are release version 5.3 of Empressr. What’s new is now you can choose color pallets from Adobe’s awesome product/service/social site Kuler.
Here’s a great post from Executive Travel Magazine’s website about some recession minded tips for achieving collaboration without the cost of transportation.
It list Empressr as the #5 tip due to it’s ease of use, integration of both video, audio, and visual aspects, and of course how, thanks to being browser based it allows all sorts of content to freely and easily accessed by parties anywhere on the globe!

The team here at Empressr LOVE IT when people get excited about the Empressr application!!!
We are always working on making your user experience the BEST possible and making Empressr the best product it can be. Part of that comes from our users feedback; that means you guys!!!
This is a great example from Eldor Germann’s blog Teaching and Technology. Beyond making us blush, we think he did an AWESOME job of summing up some of our great features like our 3D tranistions, direct import from YouTube, and on-slide image reflections.
Eldon also relates a great experience with tech support from @GlobalCitizen and @BryanThatcher which is something we really take pride in.
All in all its a great read and we highly suggest you check out his blog and the article on Empressr!
Last week while we were in Amsterdam at The Next Web, we released an update to Empressr. In the editor there were just a series of minor bug fixes, the big release was enhancements to the Presenters Dashboard.
The biggest change is how we integrate Twitter.
Empressr is the first visual storytelling and presentation rich Internet application. Feature-rich, it allows you to create, manage and share—going beyond other applications by enabling you to combine streaming video, animation, audio, still images and text to create the most dynamic content possible. You can easily embed your visual story in your blog or your favorite social network page. Or use Empressr to create state of the art boardroom presentations.
