WHERE CHANGE MATTERS
The dream for any writer is to produce the perfect content, but writing a document is an iterative process. Content goes through several draft versions before we’re happy to submit it as releasable. Once the author is happy, the document passes to a reviewer, who will make further changes.
The appropriateness of particular content management strategies is dependent both on the context in which an individual has created content and on the content itself. With the correct feature-set, certain tools can turn the nightmare of manually finding and capturing change to a content manager’s dream come true.
