The Future of TechComm

Check out this great video from Adobe on their vision for the future of technical communication. I'm impressed!

Their point is that today's technical communicators must:

  • Be well-versed in single-sourced content and XML/DITA, so that writing is made simpler to access, update, and translate;
  • Understand that technical publications departments must consider business needs and ROI;
  • and give their readers the information they need quickly, in short chunks, using illustrations and video, across a variety of devices
The future of techcomm, they say, is now. I'm inclined to agree with them.
