Quick access to useful information: Examples

a Samsung Galaxy S3 smart phone that

• I’m on vacation and I just want to…
Update maps

while I’m on my trip to Europe

8. Approaches to categorizing content
Metadata
• audience
• category
• keywords
• product info
• versions
• product name, brand, component, feature, platform, series
Subject classification
• Build knowledge model of your domain: taxonomy, relationships
• Apply it to your content

9. Social Engagement
You can’t be everywhere at once
You know about your products; how they work, how to install and configure
them.
You can’t know all the potential uses and problems that may arise.
Engage your customers
• Facilitate contributions from the field:
how-to articles, tips, videos
• Improve the quality and timeliness of the information by allowing users to
comment
• Let users build and share their own documents

10. Illustration
I’m a service engineer.
I need to install
a new 8300S Flow Meter
via Profibus protocol
and connect to the Device Manager
using a hand-held Field Communicator
The plant has no internet access.
Let me pull together updated information
download to my tablet before I go onsite.
While onsite, I figured out how to solve a tricky problem.
I took some pictures with my smart phone and a short video
to illustrate the problem and solution.
When I get online, let me write up a how-to article and upload the video so my
colleagues can learn from my experience.

11. Illustration
I’m a small business owner.
I want to pull together information relevant to me:
• Tax forms I need to file for my employees
• How health care reform applies to me
• Compliance guidelines for my industry
• Changes in governmental regulations
Let me:
• Compile my own set of quick links
• Set up an RSS feed to let me know when
updates become available
• Download to my smart phone so I can reference
them even when I’m offline
• Automatically update the content on my smart
phone when I’m online

12. Illustration
I’m a concerned parent.
My child was diagnosed with a medical condition.
I am interviewing doctors to find the right one for us.
I want to pull together information relevant to me:
• Article that describes the medical condition
• Which drugs are prescribed and the potential side
effects
• Which treatments are available
• Typical insurance coverage
Let me:
• Pull together relevant links
• Download to my smart phone so I can reference while at the doctor’s
office
• Post an article sharing my experience and recommending health care
options to other parents in my situation

13. Taking the Leap to a New Paradigm
Dynamic Enterprise Content
• Variety of content: documentation, videos, how-to articles, safety
information, data sheets, marketing material
• Context filtering: quick, goal-oriented access to contextually relevant content
• Personalized docs: allow readers to assemble content on demand and
render to PDF for print and ePub for offline mobile access
• Audience Participation: allow your audience to add new content, comment
on existing content, express approval, and easily share knowledge with
others
