The Content Wrangler Community (
http://thecontentwrangler.ning.com) is
the new social network dedicated to people who value content as a
business asset, worthy of being effectively managed. This is the place
where technical communicators, medical and science writers, marketing
pros, content management gurus, indexers, online community managers,
document engineers, information architects, localization and
translation pros, e-learning pros, taxonomists, bloggers,
documentation and training managers, and content creators of all types
hang out. It's much more than a blog. It's a place to join peers, to
share, to collaborate, to contribute, to find information.
"Social networks are about connecting people and ideas," said Scott
Abel, manager of The Content Wrangler Community. "Web-based social
networks are the natural evolution of the web from a passive broadcast
medium to a multi-directional communication platform that more closely
supports the way humans interact in the physical world. We congregate.
We join others like us. We interact with birds of a feather. Until the
advent of social networking tools, the web failed miserably to connect
people in meaningful ways."
