lightning talk from #sptechcon san francisco 2012
DESCRIPTION
I was asked to provide a service message from the SharePoint "expert community" and warn attendees of the risks/dangers of failing to plan for metadata and taxonomy. This is a logical scenario. All based on real life. Really.TRANSCRIPT

*not a real book, folks
An excerpt from the forthcoming* book:

1. When you don’t have a plan for metadata, it impacts the quality of your taxonomy
![Page 6: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
2. When your taxonomy is weak, it impacts your overall information architecture
![Page 7: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
3. When you don’t have a plan for metadata, it also impacts your ability to utilize the full potential of social

4. A weak information architecture impacts your ability to properly govern your environment
![Page 9: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
5. Without proper governance, you open up your environment to site sprawl
![Page 10: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
6. If you allow site sprawl to take hold, people begin to undervalue their roles, and the value of the platform within the company
![Page 11: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
7. When people undervalue the value of the platform, they begin to question other decisions being made by the management team
![Page 12: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
8. When people question management, a general feeling of apathy and corporate malaise begins to fester
![Page 13: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
9. When people start not caring about work, they tend to call in sick or avoid any real accountability
![Page 14: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
10. As worker productivity slides, management looks for other opportunities to automate and drive down costs and increase productivity
![Page 15: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
11. In the search for increased productivity, management will begin replacing basic functions with complex systems, including robotics
![Page 16: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
12. As the robots improve productivity and increase output, management spends more to build even bigger and better robots
![Page 17: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
13. As the robots increase in intelligence and capability, they then begin creating their own kind
![Page 18: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
14. As the robots slowly take over, humans begin to revolt and fight back against the machines
![Page 19: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
15. Just as the humans begin to turn the tide, that’s when the aliens attack
![Page 20: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
16. Unlike the movie War of the Worlds (with Tom Cruise), the aliens have been living among us for many years (Tom most likely one of them), adapting to our biological ecosystem
![Page 21: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
17. After several more hundred years, the aliens will use up all of our natural resources, and depart from earth, leaving us with a damaged shell of a planet
![Page 22: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
18. As humans begin to sort through the alien and robot trash that covers 90% of our planet, they create a basic form of government for the few who remain
![Page 23: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
19. The new government strings together from the wreckage a few old computer systems in an effort to better catalog remaining supplies and coordinate with remote human outposts

20. The first order of business of this new system?
![Page 25: Lightning Talk from #SPTechCon San Francisco 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103114/55511ea5b4c905f10b8b5433/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Defining the system’s metadata and taxonomy
