How can we use this?
• Build more dynamic web sites
• Build sites with different themes for different users:
 Target sites to specific audiences
 Mobile devices (iPhone)
 Visually impaired
• Build sites that do more than query single EMu module
 Cross-module searching allows you to publish what you
need from whatever modules you need
 Other tools such as Admin tool
• Build web services

• “NEWS” is a significant addition to the existing web tools
 More functionality
 More dynamic web sites
 More flexibility in how you use it
