We're shifting our focus to improving the Content Editor experience in GovHub. Even with the introduction of AI and other advances in technology, the content remains king. The computer can only give the information that we feed it. #GaGOVTalks

[Digital Services Ga @GeorgiaGovTeam]

GovHub is evolving and the roadmap is steeped in innovation, including a new design, better content management workflows, and improved accessibility, says @JasmyneEpps #GaGOVTalks

A usability review can help to present a complex agency’s offerings in a streamlined way, resulting in a smoother journey for an agency’s end users. The results can can also help get internal buy-in with stakeholders when making website changes. #GaGOVTalks

Creating user-centered, friendly digital experiences can challenge any state agency. For the Georgia Department of Revenue, this task is multiplied by the extensive content of four very diverse divisions, and 2 million monthly visitors. #GaGOVTalks

People usually don't come to a government website just to read it and leave. They often have a specific task they're trying to complete, and sometimes a deadline they're trying to meet. They may be stressed out! Put on your user googles and see it through their eyes. #GaGOVTalks

Hire content professionals to be SMEs of web content, just as you have SMEs in your business. Content for the web is complicated. Let the SMEs provide the content, let content strategists polish it for the web. #GaGOVTalks

Modern web content has to work in multiple contexts, across multiple devices, for a wide variety of users and roles. Content used to be HTML files(!), a complex tool for simple content. Now the tools are simple, but the content is complex, says @gregddunlap #GaGOVTalks

[Digital Services Ga @GeorgiaGovTeam]

Content is not words, it's data. For instance, a meta description summarizes the content of the page, but it never actually displays on the page. Creating well supported web content means thinking beyond the content you're typing into the body field. #GaGOVTalks

Refer to your organization's policies and guidelines before using AI in your work, especially open tools. There's a risk of surrendering sensitive information. #GaGOVTalks

How does AI impact our roles as website managers for state and local government? The bots are here, and they're quickly becoming some of our most important users, says @willalford #GaGOVTalks

Make sure your .gov website is updated and free of conflicting information. Aim to make it as your single source of truth. Humans, bots, search engines, and other automated tools are all reading it! #GaGOVTalks
