Content as asset - and why its management is more critical than ever

Content producers are coming into interesting times, to adapt the popular saying, with the dawning of The Age of Content. Industry is discovering that content is not a liability, but an asset, and just like the assets that sit, like the inventory in their warehouses, but in their databases. These assets have value, and as anything in a company that has value, these assets must be stored, managed, and valued, and possibly insured, so that it can be measured, monetized, guarded.

I'm in the midst of a very demanding project that came close to preventing me from even presenting my session. But I did make it. Despite being scheduled across from some pretty heavy competition (I wondered if anyone would even be there!), I had a full room, and everyone but one person stayed till the end, and a number of people asked questions after the session. Interestingly enough, no one asked questions in the session, really, but I suspect that no one wanted to admit in front of others to being handed the hot potato of SharePoint and told to go forth and create technical documentation with it. Overall, I was happy with it. My slides are posted to www.slideshare.net. Tom Johnson did a podcast interview with me, which you can catch at his I'd Rather Be Writing site, and I was on www.mytechnologylawyer.com radio with B. Noz Urbina, Scott Abel, and Emma Hamer, talking about content management. I, of course, talked about content convergence and integration.

I'm currently working on my conf notes for my mgmt. In the process, I'm finding several other blogs where people are reporting on what they learned at the sessions. It's interesting to see the differences between what another person received from the same session I attended, based on the difference in the amount of experience and time in the CM field.
