I'm loving catching up with the community at @webdirections.org Next! Thanks so much for putting it on @johnfallsopp.com and Rosemary Allsopp. Got my hands on a copy of Machine Customers by @katjaforbes.bsky.social too!

Who would think that at this point in Australia’s economic transition we should be spending more, not less, on research and development… Imagine if we taxed the gas industry and pant more on R&D…crazy talk … #cliamte thepoint.com.au/off-the-char...

Something to keep you warm. www.mulebooks.com/store/fuck-a...

YAYAAYAYAYAY!

Autocorrect has become our worst enema.

Woot! I'm running the last IA in practice workshop next week. Join other web professionals to learn about the best way to build a rock-solid information architecture. events.humanitix.com/information-...

When this generative "A.I." bubble's over, I'm looking forward to us all getting back to solving real world problems and making users' lives better like we were totally doing.

"users with no mental health problems" is a WILD phrase.

Can't wait to hear from you @katjaforbes.bsky.social

Aubrey is such a great speaker - this one is not to be missed!

What actually does content strategy mean? And how do you document it? That has changed a lot over the last couple of years. The easiest way to explain the way I do it is to just show you an example :) www.ellegeraghty.com.au/blog/2025/co...

Digital products don't fail dramatically. They slowly drift from user needs, becoming cluttered and driven by wrong metrics. Tim Hardaker shows how to stop the decay. Tim Hardaker at Next 25 bit.ly/3KcoLsF

I'm delighted to be presenting a series of free talks on information architecture in conjunction with Optimal Workshop. The first is coming up on October 15th. optimalworkshop.zoom.us/webinar/regi... #IA #webinar #findability #navigation #contentstrategy #contentdesign

Tonight was a much-needed community catch-up. I feel rejuvenated after seeing you all! Thanks @atlassian.bsky.social for providing the reason! #sydney #rainy #design #content #meetup

If you want to elevate your content game start by thinking about the business problems your practice will solve. lnkd.in/gZsbr5zq

What does strategy actually mean? I reckon it's figuring out these three things. 1. What is currently going on? 2. Where do you want to be? 3. What work do you need to do to bridge the gap? It's not easy, but having that pattern in mind really helps. www.ellegeraghty.com.au

An M.I.T. study found that 95% of companies that had invested in A.I. tools were seeing zero return. It jibes with the emerging idea that generative A.I., “in its current incarnation, simply isn’t all it’s been cracked up to be,” johncassidysays.bsky.social writes.

There are so many reasons that a content strategy can help you organise your content better. Getting content strategy or information help does not have to be expensive or trigger complicated procurement processes. Sometimes, a $10K credit card engagement can go a long way. www.ellegeraghty.com.au

Thanks so much to the people who volunteer to help make the @sydneycontent.bsky.social so amazing. From presenters to ushers, to photographers, to caterers. Together we have been running this community for over 14 years. Gotta love it! www.sydneycontentstrategy.com

Content and information architecture people, you may want to avert your eyes if you don't live in a place with tsumamis.

There are so many ways you can arrange the IA on your website. If you want to learn how to work out the best option for yours, join my IA training workshop on the 6th and 7th August. events.humanitix.com/information-...

Do you have a sneaking suspicion that your website IA is not working as it should? Are you getting complaints about findability and buried content? I can help you define just how much of a problem you are dealing with and where the hot spots are. www.ellegeraghty.com.au/ia-baseline

Last night’s presentation and workshop exercise by Linette Voller from Canva was simply brilliant. She was able to flip the script and show us how lessons learnt making her sketchnotes better, seamlessly applied to her content design practice too. See you at the next one!

Day 2 of Remix was just a good as the first. One of the things I love about an IRL conference is meeting new people and having in-person conversations. Love it! #remixsyd

Courts are recognizing that manufacturers of such digital products have the same responsibilities to provide safe products to their users as manufacturers of physical goods, especially when those users are children, writes Ariel Fox Johnson.

A very inspiring and thought-provoking day at Remix Sydney today. It's very exciting to be a room with so much creative energy learning from experts who know how to to make shit happen. I love the nosy look into best practices in the cultural institution space.

I can't wait to hear from Linette Voller at our next meetup :) Linette will show us how her sketch-noting practice has honed her content strategy and design practice. events.humanitix.com/sydney-conte...

Slides from my talk about content measurement from Weave's Content Strategy and Design Meetup are now live! It was so good to see so many people in the audience 🥰. www.slideshare.net/slideshow/an...

See you at the next one!

Looking forward to seeing you all tonight 🥰

Content jobs are wide and varied. They cover everything from writing copy for a billboard to a button in an app. AI has challenged the scope of those roles, and budgets and the political climate are applying pressure to get more done with less. www.ellegeraghty.com.au/blog/2022/we...

What is content-first design? Why is it important? And who's actually doing it right? Join six-time author Sarah Johnson as she answers these questions and more in our next virtual event: 6 p.m. PDT/9 p.m. EDT March 12. RSVP today: www.meetup.com/content-stra...

Need to fix your IA? Not sure where to start? Worried about managing all your stakeholders? Don't know the difference between categories and taxonomies? I can help you answer all these questions in my online one-day IA course. It's super hands-on. March 12-13. events.humanitix.com/information-...

It was so nice to be back at @atlassianofficial.bsky.social for our first meetup of the year. Thanks for all your great questions. The workshop exercise went off!

Prioritisation and decision-making are two of the most important elements of my work. At both macro and micro levels, content strategy is about deciding what is essential and starting work based on those decisions. www.ellegeraghty.com.au/blog/2025/pr...

If I had AI-backer VC money instead of making a new LLM I would hire an elite team of librarians to find Actual Information

Last night's meetup went off! A huge thanks to our brilliant presenter, Luke Ellery. Your laser focus on how content designers can contribute to AI agents' usability was fab. Attendees' creative and thoughtful AI agent conversation starters and caveats in the workshop exercise rocked!

A few thoughts on frequently asked questions (FAQs) by Sarah Winters. From the CDL blog ⬇️

@mariafarrell.bsky.social your talk 100 per cent lived up the hype! Thanks so much for inspiring us and bringing together the conference in your closing keynote in such a complete way

There are still a couple of places left in my IA training workshop next week. It spans two mornings (Sydney time). I love this workshop because we build a website IA from start to finish in only one day! events.humanitix.com/information-...?

We are at @webdirections.bsky.social Next! Woot :)

I'm excited to be in @karenmcgrane.bsky.social and @eaton.fyi'stalk about about AI for IA :)

I've seen a run-through of Luke Ellery's presentation, and I know you will love it. The Sydney Content Strategy Meetup is a great opportunity to get a professional dev hit while catching up with ace content colleagues. The pizza is just icing! events.humanitix.com/sydney-conte...

I have delivered two large content strategies this year that have made me refine and enhance how I teach content strategy. I can’t wait to deliver the updates at next week’s last content strategy in practice workshop of the year. events.humanitix.com/content-stra...

Wondering if my upcoming content strategy and information architecture workshops are worth it? Don't take my word for it :) Check out what past participants have to say. Upcoming dates: CS November 13 and IA December 4. www.ellegeraghty.com.au/training
