Opinions and discussion on content management by one of the biggest guys in the business. *Measured by weight not volume
I can’t put a value on how important my ECM (Enterprise Content Management) network has been. Your network can be a support system when you’re trying to get through project hurdles, a reviewer for when you’re looking at changing a strategy and a source of a new opportunity if that need arises.

The problem is that too often people on opposite sides of the table can argue against the same side of a solution for hours without realizing that both... Continue Reading →
On Tuesday afternoon I'll be speaking on Mobile Content Management at AIIM Expo. Mobile content management to me is a "coming of age" story but debate continues as to whether or not this is a category that can eventually stand on its own.
