Speaking at WebVisons 2005

May 25, 2005 | 1 Comments

I write quite often about the value, opportunities and challanges of Web content. It seems like content is the hardest part, and most rewarding part of much of my work. I deal with it, in some way, on a day-to-day basis and I honestly think it’s something that will only grow in importance as time goes on.

I think we’re heading toward a time when we’ll really begin to have Web professionals who are totally focused on content. Right now many designers are expected to not only design, but information architect, produce, manage and program. While I’d agree that writing can be part of design, the issue of content is much more.

To that end, I’m going to be part of a panel on Web content at WebVisions 2005. The event will be held at the Oregon Convention Center on Friday, July 15 from 8:30am to 5:00pm.

I’ll be joined by Molly Holzschlag, Kevin Smokler, and Nick Finck and we’ll be talking about the future of content on the Web, convergence and where we’re all headed.

Nick has a bit more in his post, Content is King, But Where’s The Proof?

WebVisions is a great event and a really good value. I hope to see some of you there.
