- Developing Sustainable Content
Strategies
Gilbane Conference on Content Management (Boston, MA) (December

Every
successful deployment of a content management application begins with a

implementation is up and running.
We examine actual business and IT planning scenarios and
identify the characteristics associated with successful content
technology deployment.

initiatives. Large DAM initiatives differ from small ones in important
ways, but there are also some common characteristics to all DAM
efforts. We'll discuss the differences, similarities, and strategies
for making your DAM iniitiative successful. Look at some notes about
Larry's digital
asset management presentation.

- Download Versus Streaming:
Understanding The Differences And Knowing The Value Each One Holds
Streaming Media West 2003 (Santa Clara, CA) (October
2003)
One
of the most frequently asked
questions about delivering online video is "What's the difference
between streaming video and downloading video?" Let's face it, as a
user clicking a video link on a web page, you often won't know which
method you're using, unless you poke around a little. But streaming and
downloading are distinct methods of delivery, each with its own
benefits and limitations. We'll take a look at the difference between
the two methods, and make some suggestions about when you should choose
one or the other for your projects.
