The Latest Gossip on Vignette and E! Online
Vignette Corp. and E! Online secure the leading roles in a venture that pairs the content management supplier with the entertainment news and celebrity gossip Web site.
E! Online features extensive coverage of events such as the Oscar® and Grammy® awards where vast amounts of content must be updated quickly and easily. Site visitors from more than 100 countries rely on the news and information provided by E! Online and Vignette® applications allow global editors to update the site in the most efficient and timely manner. Vignette’s open architecture will also enable E! Online to leverage investments in technology well into the future when necessary.

Online to deliver up-to-the-minute coverage of the annual, highly anticipated Academy Awards® show, hitting a record 18.1 million page views,” said Jeff Mayzurk, vice president of technology, E! Networks. “With Vignette’s applications, we were comfortably poised to meet this significant demand.”
