Cocktail Hour: 5 at 5pm

March 26, 2010

Every Friday around 5pm, I’ll be linking to five content-related articles that inspired, surprised, and delighted me during the week. (Then we drink.)

  1. Liz Danzico on Obama’s editing
  2. Robert Gracey, “Content Transparency: Can You See Me Now?”
  3. Tiffani Jones, “Before You Hire a Writer”
  4. Jeffrey Zeldman, “Love Me Long Time”
  5. Nicole Jones’s rowdy new blog, Contente.org (what is it with these Apple kids?)

Bonus: Poynter‘s Roy Peter Clark on getting word order right (video)—the three-minute preview is free and includes one of my favorite lines from Shakespeare.
