The document discusses open APIs for connecting devices in the Internet of Things. It notes that connectivity between things is important, but current approaches can lead to fragmentation, complexity, and lock-in. The document advocates for open specifications and implementations to allow interoperable communication between devices using standards like MQTT. It provides examples of how sensor networks, people networks, and the connections between them could work using open APIs.

Content Amid Chaos

Sara Wachter-Boettcher

This document discusses approaches for turning web projects into catalysts for positive change by making improvements achievable, aiming for ownership among stakeholders, and getting commitment through roadmaps. It advocates starting with a visible, valuable problem of limited scope and involving others through asking questions rather than directives. Breaking larger goals into defined smaller projects and assigning leaders can help keep efforts moving forward. The overall message is that addressing complex issues requires an iterative process of making progress, however imperfect, through collaboration rather than perfection.

What you don't know will hurt you: Designing with and for existing content

Sara Wachter-Boettcher

Are you trying to make responsive design scale for a complex site? Building an app, but your organization doesn't have an API yet? If so, you've probably got legacy content—content that already exists, and that doesn't fit neatly into your new project. What do you do? You could ignore it and end up with one of those responsive homepages that devolve into big content blobs after just one tap, or a one-off mobile site that no one can remember to maintain. You could put it off until it becomes the bane of your existence: the thing that "breaks" your design, because it's way messier than you’ve planned for. Or, you could deal with it.

Orchestrating Content—FOWD NYC

Sara Wachter-Boettcher

Keynote presentation at Future of Web Design 2014 in NYC Templates, trainings, threats: I’ve tried everything to get content from clients and colleagues sooner—and mobile hasn’t made things easier. Instead of planning pages, now we’re asking stakeholders to prioritize and manage a million bits of modular content. So how do we keep our subject-matter experts from feeling overwhelmed, prevent carousel-obsessed executives from endless homepage arguments, and get the content we need to make design and development decisions? The answer is in using content strategy as a means to orchestrate, not dictate.

Managing the Content Process

Sara Wachter-Boettcher

The document discusses managing content processes and provides strategies for implementing content management successfully. It recommends (1) putting content at the core by developing a content strategy, (2) finding what is realistic given constraints, and (3) setting people up for success through training, tools and clarifying processes. Treating content as a parallel process to design is key to creating better content with less pain.

In It Together: Co-Creating Your Content Strategy

Sara Wachter-Boettcher

When I turned my web writing job into this “content strategy” thing back in 2008, I thought I’d hit the jackpot: Finally, I had the tools to solve the problems that plagued my projects. Content wasn’t left ’til last, projects weren’t delayed, concerns weren’t limited to design and development. Win, win, win. But then some terrible someone always came along to spoil my party. I’d make a style guide; the authors would stop following it. I’d work out a content model; the designer would insist on an interface it couldn’t support. I’d go through the audit results; the client would smile, nod...and go back to business as usual. I wanted to make content meaningful. Instead, I was making documents. I was making fantasies. Sometimes, I was even making enemies. I was overwhelmed, overworked, and disappointed—until I changed the way I saw my role. Instead of tying things up with a bow and delivering it to others’ doorsteps, I learned how to make the work theirs instead—to create strategy with them, not for them. In this talk, I share the ways I overhauled how I work, and how that’s led to more successful projects and more satisfying client relationships.

Changing Content, Changing Culture

Sara Wachter-Boettcher

Responsive. Adaptive. Mobile first. Cross-channel. We all want a web that's more flexible, future-friendly, and ready for unknowns. There’s only one little flaw: Our content is stuck in the past. Locked into inflexible pages and documents, our content is far from ready for today's world of apps, APIs, read-later services, and responsive sites—much less for the coming one, where the web is embedded in everything from autos to appliances. We can't keep creating more content for each of these new devices and channels. We'd go nuts trying to manage and maintain all of it. Instead, we need content that does more for us: Content that's structured and defined so it can travel and shift while keeping its meaning and message intact. Content that's trim, focused, and clear—for mobile users and for everyone else, too. Content that matters, wherever it's being consumed. But it's not just that our content is stuck. Truth is, our organizations and clients are stuck, too—and unless we, web professionals of all stripes, take the lead to do things differently, they won't be able to keep up. In this session, well start with revisiting our legacy content and adding the structure and metadata we'll need to make it more flexible. Then, we'll also tackle the heart of the problem: organizational cultures that are terrified of change.

Grab a bucket! It's raining data!

Dorothea Salo

For Access 2009 conference. Grab a bucket, it's raining data! Library data, research data, primary data, mashed-up data, raw data, cooked data, our data, other people's data... But which bucket should we grab? And can we really, truly fit all the data in one bucket? And don't we risk turning data into sludge if we mix it all together in our bucket? Finding a bucket is the easy part. Grappling with data acquisition, modeling, discovery, and reuse is hard. How will we do it? Can we?
