TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
"Although the seminar is sponsored by Documentum and Arbortext, the
presenter, Ann Rockley
and her firm, The Rockley Group (www.rockley.com), are vendor neutral."
I attended a Rockley "webinar" a few weeks ago, and ended up on Documentum's
mailing list and got a cold call from one of their sales reps. I appreciate
a good strategic alliance as much as anyone, but I don't think either
partner in such an alliance can claim neutrality.
Question: The Rockley material I've read doesn't make a strong business case
for implementing content management -- it's heavy on anecdote, but light on
analysis. Maybe I haven't read enough -- has anyone else had a different
experience?
Tip: Anyone exploring content management should read "What's your strategy
for managing knowledge?" (Hansen, Nohria, and Tierney) in the Harvard
Business Review on Organizational Learning, 2001.
