Solcara, the information management software provider and LexisNexis, the international legal publisher, have joined forces to launch a web-based news monitoring service.

The new service, marketed under the somewhat unwieldy name Solcara InThe-News (LexisNexis), consolidates web content on behalf of a client law firm or company so they can more easily keep abreast of what is being said about them, their clients and their competitors.
