Editorial calendar across publication channels
Co-ordinate across newsroom boundaries
Modern story planning does not stop at the door of your newsroom. Freelancers need to be informed and the number of newsroom co-operations rises constantly. Desk-Net allows you to easily connect and co-ordinate users outside of your newsroom.
Define how a story is being told
Each story can comprise one or more articles, videos, pictures, etc. Use Desk-Net to define the right formats per story and assign them to the various publication channels. Know how your stories are being told.
Manage your editorial appointments
Keep track of your editorial appointments
An interview needs to be scheduled? You receive an invitation to an event? Manage the editorial calendar for your newsroom and yourself with Desk-Net and always be in the know about all appointments.
Export calendar data
Users can check their appointments either directly in Desk-Net or in almost any other place. Use the calendar invitations sent out by Desk-Net, access the editorial calendar feed with your iPhone calendar or other electronic calendars or use our mobile client to check your editorial assignments.
Import emails and event data
You can send emails to Desk-Net so that you don't need to copy & paste them. You can also import your event data from various XML feeds such as EventsML G2. Review those events, make an editorial decision on what to cover and move the event seamlessly into your story planning.
Coordinate your editorial staff
Assign tasks to users
Desk-Net allows you to easily assign tasks such as writing an article or shooting a video to a user - even to non-registered users outside of your newsroom. Assignees can be asked to confirm their tasks and each user has their personal task list.
Keep track of absences
Be aware of which of your colleagues is on vacation or absent due to another reason. Desk-Net displays absences and warns you if an absence causes a problem with an appointment or a deadline.
