See all- Content Debt: How to Identify, Reduce, and Eliminate ItAustin Public Library Howson Branch, Austin, TX
Do you wake up in the middle of the night and think about all the things wrong with your content? Are you worried every time a PM messages you, concerned they're about to point out a massive doc skeleton in the docs? Are you worried you have no time to improve your docs because you're constantly chasing releases and go-lives? Then you don't want to miss this month's WTD ATX meetup!
