Being able to have a powerful data extraction system for news content allows a wonderful slew of possibilities for repurposing the info. I don't know if this kind of approach would be comprehensive enough for things like crime reports, but it would be great for looking up every time so-and-so was quoted in the paper or creating things that resemble Times Topics.

For an individual to test it out, that's a lot of money. But for news website content management, it's INSANELY cheap. Most corporate CMS systems cost millions and don't do 1/20th of what Ellington can do. Unfortunately, most news websites are cobbled together Frankenstein-style with antiquated home grown or patched together systems and throwing all that out to restart with Ellington takes some massive kool-aid drinking. :) Cheers, Will Hey Ryan,
