Intelligent content

Lars-Olof Allerhed — Sat, 18 Dec 2010 16:31:31 +0000

The theme of this year’s conference is “All Things Delivered,” focusing on how content in all its various forms reaches its audience in a timely and cost-effective way. After an opening workshop on intelligent content by Ann Rockley and conference co-producer Joe Gollner, attendees will have to make a difficult choice between workshops on social media (Robert Rose & Michael Weiss), mobile (David Clemons), customer experience(Samantha Starmer) and DITA (Mark Lewis).

But what does “intelligent content” mean? To me it means content that contains cues that indicate what it’s about, who it’s for, and the context in which it would be most useful. You could say it’s content that’s ’self aware’. These qualities may not be evident to readers, but it makes it possible to present the content in more meaningful and flexible ways.
