This is a sample that contains some of the themes I would discuss. But it is not the actual presentation. That would combine the first half of this presentation with parts of another that discusses writing modular content and one that presents Drupal card stacks. This one provides a sense of my presentation style. I’ve given this particular talk dozens of times for government & nonprofit audiences.

HIGHLY-DIFFERENTIATED CONTENT

EXCEPTIONAL USER EXPERIENCE

Content succeeds when it’s unlike what

be better in some way that users care about.
