Newsgator named Colorado Company To Watch

DENVER - Denver-based Newsgator is being honored for innovating social networking to help businesses work more efficiently.

9NEWS continues to honor Colorado Companies To Watch by teaming up with the state's Office Of Economic Development to highlight companies that have not only found a way to survive, but to thrive in this tough economy.

Newsgator creates Web sites where employees can chat, share ideas and keep up on industry trends.

Just like popular social networking sites, users can track comments and updates from others, but in this case everything is inside the company's firewall protecting sensitive information.

Newsgator also creates widgets which have been used by media outlets like Variety, the Denver Post, CBS news and others.

Newsgator is one of just 50 businesses chosen as Colorado Companies To Watch by the state's Office Of Economic Development. Every Friday morning, 9NEWS Mornings will we'll introduce you to more of the honorees.
