Keynote Presentation:
Curation, Collaboration, Cross-Platform, Cloud: Profiting From the "Four C's" of The Second Web

Publishers continue to express their prime value points through electronic media, but not always with the profit margins that they would have hoped to retain. Tools such as text analytics, the Flipboard news-viewing application and highly successful publishing business models pioneered by O'Reilly Media put pressure on publishers to be ready to innovate in both how content is produced and when and how it can be experienced for maximum value.

Veteran content industry analyst John Blossom, President of Shore Communications Inc., outlines the cutting edge of content technologies that he has defined as "The Second Web" and how they are yet again redefining successful models for high-margin publishing businesses.
