This document discusses how operational efficiency can be improved through consistent terminology management and reuse of content. It argues that using the right tools for terminology management can reduce writing time, improve editing and translation processes, lower costs, speed time to market, and improve customer satisfaction. The key is establishing style guides and terminology standards, though the document notes that many organizations fail to properly use these guides.

How to Write Using International English - Excerpt

Content Rules, Inc.

The document discusses best practices for writing in International English to facilitate localization for global markets. It defines International English as a writing style that emphasizes comprehension and cultural neutrality. Some key guidelines covered include using a natural voice, simplifying language, choosing words carefully to reduce complexity, and respecting other cultures.

Silver Peak Case Study

Content Rules, Inc.

1) The company provides software and services to over 1,000 financial institutions and was struggling to backup extremely large volumes of sensitive customer data from its production facility to a disaster recovery site within narrow 15 minute windows due to bandwidth limitations over its T1 link. 2) The company deployed Silver Peak NX-3500 appliances in both locations, which reduced WAN bandwidth usage by 50x during peaks and 15x on average through data deduplication and compression. This allowed full backups to complete in under a minute. 3) The Silver Peak solution provided security benefits through hardware-based AES encryption and improved the company's disaster recovery capabilities while reducing costs associated with database resynchronization issues, providing a rapid ROI.

Do Personas Work in a Global Marketplace?

Content Rules, Inc.

Personas are person-driven stereotypes that we use to create personalized content. However, personas are specific to a culture. If your company sells to a global marketplace, creating personas for every target customer, in every culture, in every language does not scale. This presentation presents Hofstede's cultural dimensions as an alternative framework for creating culture-specific content for the global marketplace.

Taxonomy and Terminology: The Crossroad of Controlled Vocabulary

Content Rules, Inc.

Many people are confused about taxonomy and terminology. And with good reason. Both taxonomy and terminology use words – often the same words. They are both ways of controlling your vocabulary. However, taxonomy and terminology are used for different purposes. In this presentation, we define taxonomy and terminology. We examine how they are different and where they intersect. We also cover some best practices for managing them both.

Earley & Associates is an information architecture consulting firm founded in 1994 with headquarters in Boston. They have 20 core consultants plus additional experts. Their services include taxonomy development, metadata strategy, digital asset management, information architecture, search strategy, and communities of practice related to these topics. Richard Beatch is a senior consultant specializing in taxonomy, search, and metadata.

Repurpose, Reuse and Refresh Content

Pam Didner

The document discusses strategies for repurposing, reusing, and refreshing existing content. It recommends first understanding your audience through research to identify personas. An example IT manager persona is provided. Editorial topics can then be developed based on personas' needs and used to determine what content to create or repurpose. Options for repurposing include breaking down long-form content into shorter pieces, adapting content for different formats and audiences, and combining elements from multiple sources into new content. Leveraging partners' materials and freelancers can help when budgets are limited. Proper planning is key to maximizing the value of repurposed content.

It defines IP as including both traditional concepts like copyrights and trademarks, as well as "back office" work products and expertise.

Structured authoring for business-critical content

Jason Aiken

For decades, XML has armed technical documentation professionals with a component-based approach to content that overcomes the many challenges caused by standalone, static documents created in silos. The problem, however, is that there is so much other business-critical content out there that could benefit from a structured approach to authoring for content automation. Learn why it is critical for technical documentation experts to translate their best practices into solutions that non-technical content creators can apply to business-critical content. Business-critical content is content you sell, content that helps you sell, or content that helps you run your business.
