Q1: There?s more and more content to manage in-site and online. Is role leaning toward a collector of info as well as producer? #tcchat |
|
5:05 pm
|
juliov27612:
|
A1: Definitely. I heard talk last week that spoke about information management. A melding of content strategy and curation, I think. #tcchat |
|
5:05 pm
|
KnowledgeBishop:
|
@TC_Chat I believe official content curation role is inevitable, but I'm not seeing it in practice just yet. #tcchat |

Q2: Content strategist: a new role? #tcchat |
|
5:09 pm
|
larry_kunz:
|
A1: Yes....Collector, organizer, editor (to make it all editorially correct and consistent)...In short, curator. #tcchat |
|
5:09 pm
|
KnowledgeBishop:
|
@2moroDocs Exactly - research, listening, monitoring - but a few companies (autodesk via mindtouch) already co-author with users. #tcchat |
|
5:10 pm

juliov27612:

A2: I think new term and scope definition of an already existing role. Probably one that needed more clarity in any case. #tcchat |

Strategist needed long ago but I think inconsistent information and different voices from same source brought the role forward. #tcchat |
|
5:12 pm
|
KnowledgeBishop:
|
@TC_Chat A2: I'd suggest "Content Strategist" is more "new title" than "new role": Some have done these tasks for years. #tcchat |

Though I also agree with Larry that in some cases the role is "new". #tcchat |

|
5:14 pm

juliov27612:
|
@TC_Chat A3: I'm not sure ed. board needed. Most corps. have something in place already to handle some of those reqs. #tcchat |

juliov27612:
|
@TC_Chat Socmed just another wrinkle in the input stream. #tcchat |

@ermphd Yes, volume dictates amount of curation. #tcchat |
|
5:16 pm
|
2moroDocs:
|
@knowledgebishop @juliov27612 @larry_kunz You're all raising interesting note. R titles changing more 2 reflect added reqs of 2day? #tcchat |
|
5:17 pm
|
juliov27612:

@2moroDocs Titles may not be changing formally, but there is identity crisis about reqs. and current titles. #tcchat |
|
5:17 pm

@juliov27612 A3: So perhaps legal reqs handled at higher corp level, & UGC guidelines at doc dept level? #tcchat |

A3 How do we define the skill requirements for the expanded role? #TCchat |

5:18 pm

@juliov27612 Wonder how that's filtering down to job descriptions #tcchat |
|
5:19 pm
|
content2000:
|
@TC_Chat A1 - I see the curator role NEEDing to come, but don't see corp. support for that yet. No high-level awareness #tcchat |
|
5:19 pm
|
juliov27612:
|
@2moroDocs I think you're onto something there. doc dept. still has knowledge of reqs. but will defer to legal when in quandry. #tcchat |
|
5:19 pm
|
juliov27612:
|
@2moroDocs Not sure if any of this is filtering into job descriptions yet. Think that push has to come from ground up. #tcchat |

5:20 pm

2moroDocs:
|
@content2000 This will tie in to a ques I have coming in a bit. Stay tuned! #tcchat |

@juliov27612 That's why I asked the Q re def of skills for the curators #TCchat |

5:21 pm

@ermphd The skills are analysis, ability to prioritize, others that my addled brain is withholding from me right now. LOL #TCchat |

@TC_Chat Q2 - content strategist is at least a recognized need (slowly growing recognition) but again, not seeing the job titles. #tcchat |
|
5:22 pm
|
2moroDocs:
|
@juliov27612 Interesting. So doc depts need 2 plan to push needed chgs up the chain more. Roles, new reqs like socmed, coord w/legal #tcchat |

|
5:25 pm

|
@TC_Chat Which evangelist? I think there may actually be more needed now. #tcchat |

|
5:26 pm
|
2moroDocs:
|
@juliov27612 Do we need to split this out, then? Pick who is evangelizing where? In-house. Outside via socmed? #tcchat |
|
5:27 pm
|
ermphd:
|
A4 Considering that Corp investment in curation and UGC is slow, the evangelist role seems crucial #TCchat |
|
5:27 pm
|
juliov27612:
|
@2moroDocs I think you need an evangelist for each major prong in tech comm. #tcchat |
|
5:27 pm

@TC_Chat A3- not sure editorialboard's role in socmed,but the rest makes sense #tcchat |
|
5:28 pm

juliov27612:

@2moroDocs I wouldn't differentiate between in-house and outside. Message should be the same. #tcchat |

@2moroDocs I'd look at removing the barrier between marketing, sales, support, and product documentation. #tcchat |

|
@ermphd Need to formulate ROI for the roles. #TCchat |

Q1: There?s more and more content to manage in-site and online. Role leaning toward a collector of info as well as producer? #tcchat |
|
3:05 am
|
kirstyt:
|
@TC_Chat Yes, I think so. Finding has always been part of what we do, now collect/curate/share/enable. #tcchat |
|
3:05 am
|
mojoneill:
|
I guess in some ways, sure. But hasn't tw always been about collecting information (in order to facilitate production)?
#tcchat |
|

I don't see this as something new insomuch as in some environments the responsibility has expanded
#tcchat |

#tcchat |
|
3:09 am

My thought is that there's more info avail & needed to track or review. More outside influencers now. #tcchat |

3:09 am
|
2moroDocs:

Also, ppl making much UGC. Need to watch for that, prob #tcchat |
|
3:10 am

@TC_Chat I think UGC will vary - works in some industries, but not as well in others (e.g. regulated industries)#tcchat |
|
3:10 am
|
2moroDocs:
|
@mojoneill both? or what is your distinction? #tcchat |
|
3:11 am
|
mojoneill:
|
@2moroDocs purely semantic (and probably a stretch at that). Are we getting more signal today, or just more noise?
#tcchat |
|
3:12 am
|
2moroDocs:
|
What's diff now is that there's so much info coming in, can overwhelm. Need to review, organize, determine how 2 access? #tcchat |

|
the information spigot has become a fire hose and all we have is a tablespoon.
#tcchat |

Q2: Might something like an editorial board be helpful for establishing UGC guidelines, reviewing legal reqs, handling socmed? #tcchat |
|

|
Q2: By this, I'm thinking of guidelines such as verifying accuracy, how to handle real-time situations, legal ramifications #tcchat |
|
3:18 am

|
@TC_Chat Depending on industry, yes. Might be more "moderators" than "editorial board", tho. #tcchat |

@kirstyt Who comes up with the rules or guidelines that moderators follow & use to make decisions? (gen'l ques) #tcchat |

i'd put that decision as close to the people that have to enforce them as possible.

#tcchat |
|
3:23 am
|
2moroDocs:
|
@mojoneill Do u think that perhaps doc ppl shld get on decision-making teams w/other co depts? Legal, for ex. Next ques coming... #tcchat |
|
3:25 am
|
mojoneill:
|
@2moroDocs well, I don't think it's a question of "should they" because it would be nice. I think it's a question of ... #tcchat |
|
3:25 am
|
mojoneill:
|
@2moroDocs ...I think it's a question of, "Is your organization mature enough to understand it's a question of survival?" #tcchat |
|
3:26 am

|
@2moroDocs Good question. If company is leading UGC, then they should establish starting points & what need approval (& doesn't) #tcchat |
|
3:26 am
|

|
Q3: There are new roles coming into play, it seems. How impt is Evangelist now? Reaching out to other depts for ex #tcchat |
|

|
@kirstyt Sounds like a plan. Wonder how companies/doc depts handling that now #tcchat |
|
3:28 am

@mojoneill Makes sense. Makes me think of S1: evangelist role impt. Letting ppl know in co abt this very issue, for instance #tcchat |

@mojoneill Do u think that companies having to figure that out more on the fly these days, or is it becoming clearer? #tcchat |

@mojoneill Good point. Everyone has to buy in, or at least become aware of what's needed #tcchat |
|

2moroDocs:
|
So these r roles I'm seeing here so far. Collector/curator, moderator, evangelist, planner re rules & guidelines #tcchat |
|
3:41 am
|
2moroDocs:
|
Some have been around a while. Just changing quite a bit now? Earlier, mentions that titles/job reqs changing. Expanded roles? #tcchat |
|
3:42 am
|
2moroDocs:
|
@mojoneill that's true. #tcchat |
|
3:43 am
|
mojoneill:
|
@2moroDocs titles be damned. ;P Are people talking? If not, help them start. Step 2, be the person people want the information from. #tcchat |

Q5: Are you seeing any completely new roles for tech writers? #tcchat |
|
3:45 am
|
2moroDocs:
|
@mojoneill Exc point. Get out there and make things happen. #tcchat |
|
3:46 am
|
2moroDocs:
|
@mojoneill Seems like that role may perhaps be gaining in importance #tcchat |
|
3:47 am
|
mojoneill:
|
there will always be a need and market for fully vetted, edited, and peer reviewed tech. content in many industries. #tcchat |
|
3:47 am
|
mojoneill:
|
...and I think that's OK. #tcchat |
|
3:48 am
|
2moroDocs:
|
A5: SocMed role is new. Maybe others just enhanced w/new responsibilities. Ex: community mgmt & content management: more to address #tcchat |
|
3:48 am
|
mojoneill:
|
...but meanwhile, out in left field, there's this new thing happening...where tw-ers aren't as relevant in their traditional roles. #tcchat |
|
3:49 am
|
mojoneill:
|
social media mgmt, content strategy, community management, web site, etc... are all aspects of Presence. #tcchat |
|
3:50 am
|
2moroDocs:
|
@mojoneill Yes! You're so right. Well put. #tcchat |

@mojoneill Yep! Great description. also perhaps not as comfortable? #tcchat |

kirstyt:
|
@TC_Chat A4 I'm one of the only ones monitoring soc med here. Worried my team too busy, not interested in it for work. #tcchat |
|
3:52 am
|
2moroDocs:
|
@mojoneill perfect term. online presence #tcchat |
|
3:52 am
|
kirstyt:
|
@TC_Chat A4: completely new roles. Not at the moment, here in this market. But there could be. #tcchat |
|
3:53 am
|
mojoneill:
|
@kirstyt well Krystyt, in many orgs , management is too out of touch to provide leadership in that area. #tcchat |
|
3:54 am
|
kirstyt:
|
@mojoneill Indeed. I've stepped in to some twittering, because I'm interested & don't want our acct to be just press releases #tcchat |
|
3:54 am
|
mojoneill:
|
@2moroDocs well, it's an old term that I've resurrected because we've fragmented our vision of how things relate. #tcchat |
|
3:55 am
|
2moroDocs:
|
@kirstyt I wonder if they use it as much? Suppose if person uses socmed more, realizes how impt it is to monitor #tcchat (a guess/thought) |
|
3:56 am
|
mojoneill:
|
@kirstyt sure! that's fantastic. Has anyone questioned your judgement yet on spending company time doing it? (better not answer) ;P #tcchat |
|
3:56 am
|
kirstyt:
|
@2moroDocs Most I've talked to don't use or get socmed. Some I can't convince to make doco publicly available. #tcchat |
|
3:57 am
|
kirstyt:
|
@mojoneill No, but they probably don't realise I am. Not much time spent on it so far. My mgr is not a micro mgr & is overseas. #tcchat |
|
3:57 am
|
2moroDocs:
|
@mojoneill I think it's a great term. Infers importance. Certainly want your co looking presentable or having positive presence. ;) #tcchat |
|
3:59 am
|
mojoneill:
|
@kirstyt sure. seems like you're in a good position to pull the boat in that direction. #tcchat |
|
4:00 am
|
2moroDocs:
|
@kirstyt Yikes! That would be tough. #tcchat |
|
4:00 am
|
mojoneill:
|
@kirstyt I'm curious. As you're pulling your group in that direction, are you meeting customers out there sayin, "Hi!" #tcchat |
|
4:03 am
|
2moroDocs:
|
Well, it's after 8:00 already. "Official" time is up. But I could continue... #tcchat |
|
4:05 am
|
mojoneill:
|
@2moroDocs hmm... I think it's just the two of us again. hehe #tcchat |
|
4:06 am
|
kirstyt:
|
@mojoneill I've not found many customers on socmed so far. Maybe 1-2 on twitter; a few more are active on LinkedIn. #tcchat |
|
4:07 am
|
2moroDocs:
|
@mojoneill could be the case. #tcchat |
|
4:09 am
|
2moroDocs:
|
@kirstyt interesting point. audience def matters, doesn't it? #tcchat |
|
4:10 am
|
mojoneill:
|
@2moroDocs OK. @2moroDocs and @kirstyt thank's for the chat tonight. as usual, you left me with more to think about than I came with #tcchat |
|
4:11 am
|
kirstyt:
|
@2moroDocs Yup, I think a lot of our products have users with no/limited internet access at work. #tcchat |
