Karen came to the Sparkbox training space to advise us how to create better content for any device.
If you enjoy this video from Karen’s workshop, be sure to checkout this year's amazing Build Right: Maker Series lineup!
From the Foundry:
"In the intimate Maker Series setting with 35 other people who care about content, Karen took us all to church, preaching that we have to stop stalling. We have to “stop the bleeding.” We all have to get comfortable with iterating. The web was made to be changed over and over again. We have to step away from a fixation on perfection and getting it all right upfront and instead embrace technologies (responsive design) and techniques (content modeling) that get us most of the way there and then refine and adjust as we go." - Emily Gray (Content Strategist, Sparkbox)
