thoughtfully joined a bit about the process
Great content but not easy to find. Re-inventing instead of re-using. Sometimes need a taste not the whole enchilada. Parts not easily re-mixable. The Problem
Take apart the big pieces. Create sub-pages: tasters. Re-assemble subpages for different purposes using transclusion. Embed for presentation. The Plan
Content management: authoring/presentation. Dynamic page list: keeps track of the bits/subpages. Transclusion code: to pull the bits together. Embed code/page level re-publishing The Parts content management connectors content content
Trade-offs: imposed structure improves re-use but does it constrict editing? Opening up to serendipitous use - our structure may work for us but does it invite others in? Open editing vs. control over content - some may like the idea of new content being added and fed out to multiple sites - others not so much. Tensions/Questions?
