Should I receive the free pass because I need to justify my fancy new title of “architect.?” No, the real reason is that I honestly see content management as the Tao of the Future. Technical Writers need to be the evangelists for this movement because no one knows the importance of easily accessible and reusable information as a technical writer does.
I may be an architect today, but I want to be a Content Management Evangelist. But, I’m just a mere novice…attending Gillbane will help me on the path to enlightenment.
so. in the spirit of Letterman and a multitude of cheesy things, here are the top 5 reasons i need to be at Gilbane this year:
1 – because it’s been exactly a year since my last technology/business conference (the last one was with Gartner PPM in Lisbon) and i’m worried that i’ve forgotten how to wear a name tag.
2 – because that bit on the program about “Collaboration, Enterprise Wikis & Blogs”? it makes me honestly (and pathetically) excited. this is a girl who thinks the concept of Knowledge Management is almost godlike…
3 – because i have (at least once in my life), been referred to as the Content Management Queen. i know. maybe i shouldn’t make such potentially lame and embarrassing information public. but as you can see, i truly want to be at this conference…
4 – because “taxonomy” has come to mean much, much more than the art of preserving dead animals.
5 – because (and finally, this is a serious one), as a former technologist (who’s built a few of her own CMS solutions via blood, sweat and TextPad), a current IA (who’s dealing this month with turning a two-thousand-page technical support site into a four-hundred-and-sixty-four-page (hopefully better) technical support site), and an always-and-at-heart-writer (who refuses to pick an industry-tool for her blog because maybe one of these days she will make her own, maybe) – i really do think that content management is where all the usual suspects in any information technology crime hang out. if you have good content, and you manage it well, then everything else is due process.
My mom always said: Don’t buy the cow, when the milk is cheap. And boy, I have all the reasons to believe her. I hope this is convincing enough to make you understand that there is one person who should win a free pass to the Gilbane Conference on Content Technologies, Boston…look no further, that person is ME.
Congratulations! You are all three winners! Contact me to claim your free tickets. See you at the Gilbane Conference on Content Technologies Boston.
