New Social Network for Content Professionals: The Content Wrangler Community

The Content Wrangler Community is the new social network dedicated to people who value content as a business asset, worthy of being effectively managed. This is the place where technical communicators, medical and science writers, marketing pros, online community managers, document engineers, information architects, localization and translation pros, taxonomists, bloggers, documentation and training managers, and content creators of all types hang out. It’s much more than a blog. It’s a place to join your peers, to share, to collaborate, to contribute, to find the information you need.

Take a look around the site. Become a member. Create a profile (and please include a photo). Start a blog. Join a group. You decide. There are many ways to interact with your peers.

Some of the features of our new community include:

• Members can invite new members, meet other members

• See which members of your network are online now
