Friday content creator rap, 2 the tune of “All I do is win” by DJ Khaled *
All I do is write, write, write no matter what.
Got Search terms on my mind, you can never have enough
Focusing on content, UX & IA
Then see our page ranks go up!
And they stay there!
(All I do is rank)

Folks. FOLKS.

We announced that our new WordPress template will have no carousels. Our content editors cheered and clapped.

[Vanessa @myvanessence]

It’s easy to buy impressions, much harder to make [a good] one. First lesson of the day @PRNews writing boot camp. #PRNews

@gemelket It’s like UX for voter registration

[Higher Ed Head @HigherEdHead]

Designing a homepage without a carousel is perhaps the gutsiest move in #HigherEd web.
