Since then I’ve thought about, written about and talked about “content” (and content managment) more than I’d care to admit. Some may find it strange that, as a designer, I’d concern myself with content so much, but to me it’s lives at the very core of what I do. Honestly, I often wonder how a designer could not be interested in content. Having said that, one thing that constantly comes up in my pondering on content is the question of what “content” really is. This is even more perplexing as technology converges and becomes more ubiquitous. Defining “content” has always been a bit tricky, and now it’s even more so. Is it simply text? Is it written? Is it text and media? Is it copy? What about something like a tag? Is that content? What about a form? Is it all of these things? Or none of them? As you can see, it’s not clear to me, and maybe it doesn’t have to be. Still, I’m curious, so I thought I’d throw it out there: what does “content” mean to you? <p><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~a/DKeithRobinson?a=22I4xR"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~a/DKeithRobinson?i=22I4xR" border="0"></img></a></p> Wed, 30 May 2007 23:53:00 -0400 http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/guykawasaki/Gypm/~3/117146864/salesforce_deve.html Ill be speaking at the Salesforce Developer Conference on Monday.

One example is when Swedish design magazine <a href="http://capdesign.idg.se/">Cap&amp;Design</a> recently published a tutorial on creating a collapsing and expanding menu.</p> <p>While reading the article my jaw dropped as I realised that the tutorial uses invalid, non-semantic HTML, inline CSS and event handlers, bloated (but, amazingly, valid) CSS, and obtrusive JavaScript. In 2007.</p> <p>I sent an email to the magazine's editor, who agreed that the article shouldn't have been printed and took the example code offline. Thank you very much for doing that &#8211; hopefully it will limit the number of people using the code in their projects.</p><p><a href="http://www.456bereastreet.com/archive/200705/accessible_expanding_and_collapsing_menu/">read more</a></p> Tue, 29 May 2007 16:08:00 -0400 http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/guykawasaki/Gypm/~3/120531818/diy_pr.html My buddy, Glenn Kelman, the CEO of Redfin, had a strong reaction to last weeks post about PR by Marge Zable Fisher.
