Interesting article all around. I found the Forbes article especially interesting. The idea that content should be created by writers instead of marketers, while obvious in hindsight, is something I had never really contemplated.
I like the LEDE. Thank you. One request: make it so the links open in a separate window.
Really enjoyed, Why your good content continues to fail. It was “Great”!
Thanks for the post.
