Content strategy – so much to learn

I just ordered Kristina Halvorson’s (@halvorson on Twitter) book, Content Strategy for the Web after viewing “10 things every business person needs to know about content strategy” slideshare.net presentation (by Melissa Rach). Powerful stuff!10 things every business person should know about content strategy

Reminds me that I need to get cracking on a presentation to supplement my book. I’ll finish up this blog post for now. 🙂

I learned a lot just by clicking through this slide deck so I am anticipating a good education from the book as well.

Content strategists seem to have interesting conversations around the #contentstrategy Twitter hashtags. I learned that PBS has a Chief Content Officer and apparently so does NPR.

I enjoyed the post with notes about content strategy on I’d Rather Be Writing, Three Questions To Start Thinking Like a Content Strategist. The link list at the end is very valuable. Another fascinating set of links for learning is on this Friday content strategy: installment 3 post. It has this excellent warning right up front: Caution: reading the following may make you passionate about content strategy and knowledgeable about recent content news.

So, consider yourself warned. Starting to read this post and clicking through to all the links may lead you through a most fascinating journey to learn more about content strategy.

I had a great talk with Ellis Pratt of Cherryleaf Technical Writing consulting last week. Here are the show notes, full of links to all the topics we covered. Podcasts are great fun to listen to and participate in, if a bit nerve-wracking to think on your feet and make sure you answer questions succinctly […]

At the beginning of this year, I worked hard to summarize my thoughts on API documentation, continuous publishing, and technical accuracy for developer documentation. The result is an article on InfoQ.com, edited by Deepak Nadig, who also was forward-thinking in having me speak to a few teams at Intuit about API documentation coupled with code. Always […]
