Today’s show teaches listeners the critical importance of short, terse posts in their social media. It provides IT professionals with viable alternatives to posts, including articles, that are more appropriate for longer content.
Hosts Daphne and Fred share their analysis of the article "The Importance of Terse Posts" from the Curt Robbins & Associates Technical Writing Agency that was published on September 16, 2024.
An excerpt from the article: "One of my Eight Pillars of Technical Writing is Terseness. Being brief is particularly important in business communications and for anyone who is targeting an audience of busy professionals. This demographic simply does not have the time to consume lengthy posts, regardless of their topical appeal or quality."
