A List Apart: Articles: Future-Ready Content.
Sometimes catching up on RSS means finding all sorts of new plugins, technologies, techniques, or emerging standards. Other times, it’s a familiar rehash of things that people have been talking about for over 10 years (well, 10 is about as far back as my web-memory goes). I recall seeing “getting ready for Content Management” presentations from Veen in 2001, and working with an ill-fated XML-based content storage database around that same time.
The fact that it’s old news doesn’t mean that it’s irrelevant. The focus in this ALA article is on content storage structure as it relates to responsive web design, which is a relatively new thing. I imagine that in another 10 years, content structure is going to be just as important, even if the why is different.
