web writer who's moving toward content strategy here.

Just want to come out and say that I butchered -absolutely butchered- an elevator speech about CS last weekend. Except at dinner. With people I so wanted to impress.

Instead, I probably set myself and CS as a whole back (sorry abt that) a good long way.

So I'll be writing about point #3 now. Ugh.

I was in your workshop in Paris and definitely heard your message about getting out there and speaking. I am definitely new to the world of content strategy but taking baby steps on bringing this into my organization. I can certainly start by sharing my experience and hopefully you'll see me on the speakers circuit soon1

Thanks for this list of ideas! I am blogging on content strategy (and other content-related stuff in general) at http://www.balanceinteractive.com/blog.

Dang – Halvorson with the elbow from the sky! We need a word like schadenfreude to describe motivated shame (makes mental note of potential blog name.)

Great grist for thought – especially since hammers seem to be the only things in stock at the social media hardware stores.

Dunbar's Number isn't just about the number of sites people visit — every occasion naturally has only so much bandwidth. Building the foundation with a strong content strategy (and I'd include having uniform licensing for content uses in your list) means future growth opportunities are less likely to be hamstrung by mechanical rights issues (see also: newspaper unions).
