<td valign="top">Liferay   is by heart a portal solution with a very strong &amp; active community   behind it and an impressive clientele to prove its credentials.</td>
<td valign="top">Alfresco   is an Enterprise Content Management Software which also has an equally   powerful &amp; vigorous community supporting it and an imposing set of   customers using the software. This is again, the most admired ECMS solution   available in today’s open source market.</td>

<td valign="top">Liferay   has been wonderful in handling portal problems and its scalability have been   the main driver that helped itself to be adopted in a variety of business   verticals. However, as since its primary focus has been a portal solution,   the document and content management capabilities of this framework does not   make it very much enterprise ready, and not at all extensible, specially if   we compare it with proper document and content management systems. However,   the collaboration features of Liferay are definitely quite powerful.</td>
<td valign="top">On   the other hand, Alfresco has been fantastic as an Enterprise Document and   Content Management solution. The framework’s architecture, functionality and   extensibility makes it really the best choice for an enterprise business.   Having features like customizable workflow, templated UI, user-defined   data-types, powerful rules engine etc makes this one of the best ECMS   solution. Conversely, since it is not intended to be a collaboration   solution, these features are not very well provided.</td>

</table>
<p>Now the big question is, where these two systems are leading to? As the document management, record management features are not main focus of Liferay, similarly the collaboration features are not the most important offerings of Alfresco.</p>
<p>It will be quite interesting to see in next few months or years how these systems grow and place themselves as complementary or competitive solutions.</p>
<p>In no question that Liferay in race till now but Alfresco is going to be the competitor for Liferay in near future</p>

<p> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">Here is the code and setup information to use the Label Cloud in New Blogger.<br /> First you obviously have to have a blog on New Blogger, and you MUST be using the</font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">layouts templates</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">,<br /> (this isn&#8217;t available for classic templates, or FTP published blogs ) and you must have some posts labeled already. (There needs to be at least ONE label with more than ONE entry or the scripts hit a bug &#8211; so have at least one label with more than one entry before starting).</p>
<p> </font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">Make sure you backup your template before making any changes!</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"></p>
<p> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">Log into Blogger and go to your layouts section. On the &#8216;Page Elements&#8217; setup page<br /> make sure you have a label widget already installed where you want it (it can be moved around<br /> later).</font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">Then go to the Edit HTML settings and leave the widgets NOT exapanded.</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial"> It will make<br /> things easier to deal with.</p>
<p> Now the code comes in 3 parts. A section for the stylesheet, a configurations section,<br /> and then the actual widget itself.</p>
<p> The first part to put in is the stylesheet section. The following code needs to be copied<br /> and inserted into your stylesheet, which in the layouts is marked out by the &lt;b:skin&gt; tags.<br /> Easiest thing to do is find the closing skin tag</p>
<p> </font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">]]&gt;&lt;/b:skin&gt;</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"></p>
<p> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">&nbsp;and place the code right</font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">BEFORE</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial"> that.<br /> Here it is, copy and paste without modification right now.

<p DIR="LTR"><span LANG="en-us"><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">Now if all has gone well, and you have posts already labeled, then if you preview the<br /> blog you should see some form of the Cloud appearing.</font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">If it doesn&#8217;t appear, then something<br /> went wrong.</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial"> You should probably back out and try it again from the start.</p>
<p> </font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">Update : I&#8217;ve found 2 things to check for first if the label cloud isn&#8217;t showing</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">. &nbsp;First make sure that at least one of your labels has more than one entry. A bug in the script causes it to fail when all the labels have only one entry.(As soon as any label has more than one entry, then it should be ok from then on) Also, make sure that none of your labels contain quote marks &quot; . &nbsp;Apostrophes or single ticks &#8216; are ok.</font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial"> &#8212;&#8212;</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"></p>
<p> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">Most likely the cloud with it&#8217;s default settings won&#8217;t be what you ultimately want. But all<br /> the colors and sizes are configurable to match your tastes. If the cloud is appearing in preview<br /> then you can go about changing some of the variables so they suit.</p>
<p> </font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">The settings in the Variables section will be where you make most of your adjustments.</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial"> Here I&#8217;ll<br /> explain what each setting does.</p>
<p> var cloudMin= 1;</p>
<p> This setting you can use to limit the number of labels shown (for example if you have a lot of labels). Leave the setting at 1 to show ALL labels. &nbsp;If you enter in a higher number, then only labels that have at least that number of entries will appear in the cloud.</p>
<p> var maxFontSize = 20;<br /> var maxColor = [0,0,255];<br /> var minFontSize = 10;<br /> var minColor = [0,0,0];<br /> var lcShowCount = false;</p>
<p> The lines for<br /> </font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; maxFontSize<br /> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; maxColor</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"><br /> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">do what you may think they do. The first one sets the size (in pixels) of the label with the<br /> most amount entries. The maxColor sets the color of that entry (in RGB format). Similiar with<br /> the next two<br /> </font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">&nbsp;&nbsp; minFontSize<br /> &nbsp;&nbsp; minColor</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"><br /> <font CO</p>
<p>LOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">Just these are for the label with the least amount of entries. Again the size is in pixels,<br /> the color is in RGB format. Any labels between the two will get their color/sizes based on<br /> how many labels they are, and where their entry count falls, giving the much desired cloud<br /> effect.</p>
<p> From my experimenting, there are many factors that make up a pleasant looking cloud. From<br /> color/size choice, to the number of actual labels, to how well dispersed the entries are amoung<br /> the labels. 3 Labels don&#8217;t make a good cloud as there isn&#8217;t much to work with. You just have<br /> to experiment around to see what looks good with your setup.</p>
<p> IMPORTANT, when change the color settings, Keep them in the format supplied. In between the [] and<br /> the numbers separated by commas. The default colors are BLUE for the max and BLACK for the min.<br /> You can select any valid RGB color combination. If you don&#8217;t know what RGB colors are, don&#8217;t<br /> worry. It&#8217;s just a way of defining a color. You can use many charts on the Internet to<br /> get the correct RGB value for the color you want to try. Here&#8217;s one that is fairly good.</p>
<p> </font></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><a HREF="http://www.pitt.edu/%7Enisg/cis/web/cgi/rgb.html"><span LANG="en-us"><u></u></span><span LANG="en-us"><u><font COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">RGB Color Code Chart</font></u></span><span LANG="en-us"></span></a><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"></p>
<p> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">Remember, if you get the 3 sets of numbers to</font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">enter them in correctly</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">. Inside the [ ] separated by<br /> commas.</p>
<p> Also experiment with different font sizes. Again it depends on how many entries, how dispersed<br /> they are, and how much room for the cloud is available as to what looks good.</p>
<p> The last variable there is<br /> </font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b><br /> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">&nbsp; lcShowCount</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"></p>
<p> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">This can either be false (default) or true. All this does is turn off/on the post count displayed<br /> next to the label. Usually in a &#8216;traditional&#8217; cloud the count isn&#8217;t used. But if you go to a<br /> &#8216;flat&#8217; listing then it&#8217;s sometimes useful to turn it on.</p>
<p> Now to the CSS section. Most people won&#8217;t need to tweak these much, and it&#8217;s not necessary to<br /> understand what all those entries are for. Most are just to make sure that other styling<br /> elements from the rest of your page don&#8217;t inherit in and ruin the cloud. But there are a few<br /> that you may want to change to suit.<br /> The first line</p>
<p> &nbsp;</font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; #labelCloud {text-align:center;font-family:arial,sans-serif;}</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"></p>
<p> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">You could change the fonts used in the cloud here if you wanted.<br /> Also, the text-align statement can also be changed. I have it set to center by default but you<br /> could use</p>
<p> </font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">text-align:justify;<br /> text-align:right;<br /> text-align:left;</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"></p>
<p> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">If those suit better.</p>
<p> The next line</p>
<p> </font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; #labelCloud&nbsp; .label-cloud li{display:inline;background-image:none !important;padding:0 5px;margin:0;vertical-align:baseline !important;border:0 !important;}</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"></p>
<p> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">Well don&#8217;t worry about most of it unless you are a hardcore CSS&#8217;er. The only one of real<br /> importance is the first entry</p>
<p> </font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">display:inline;</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"></p>
<p> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">You can change that to</p>
<p> </font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b><font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">display:block;</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"></p>
<p> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">To get the &#8216;Flat&#8217; (each entry on it&#8217;s own separate line) listing of the weighted entries.<br /> Usually if that is set to block you would probably want to change the sort frequency from<br /> alphabetical to frequency.</font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">You do that by editing the widget from the Page Elements tab in<br /> Blogger.</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"></p>
<p> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">And the last bit I&#8217;ll mention is the line</p>
<p> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</font></span><span LANG="en-us"><b></b></span><span LANG="en-us"><b> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">#labelCloud .label-count</font></b></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"></p>
<p> <font COLOR="#008000" SIZE="2" FACE="Arial">If you set the lcShowCount variable to true to show the post counts, you could change the<br /> color/size of those numbered entries with that line.</font></span><span LANG="en-us"></span><span LANG="en-us"></span></p>
