At Johns Hopkins, we're about to embark on a content strategy adventure led by Ahava Leibtag and her posse at Aha Media Group. Our team has been thinking a lot about content over the past year as we designed and built our news aggregation thingy that we call the Hub. I'm excited to work with Ahava in part because she's passionate about structured content, and as I think about structuring everything on jhu.edu, I start to wonder what we do with it once it's smashed into tiny structured pieces.
This process of breaking big blobs of content into smaller chunks has been on our minds a lot, because at the center of our Hub is an ever-growing database of lovingly smashed-apart content fields (sometimes called "structured content" when people are being extra polite) and a RESTful API to deliver that content to whoever might be interested. Our latest work on that API has us thinking about how to make it more hypermedia-dr

I'm incredibly impressed by people like Mike Brenner, Jonathan Julian, and others who give a ton of themselves to push that community forward, providing opportunities for people to get involved, and being incredible resources. So don't let anyone refer to me as "the guy
