The Discourse of Component Content Management on Technical Communication Practitioner Blogs

This study explores discursive blog posts about component content management by technical communication practitioners. It identifies blogs and posts that explore component content management practices over a one-year period (2018). The study offers an overview of current approaches to, and perspectives on, CCM by synthesizing this community's blog contributions. The complexity of some approaches are causes for concern. While many bloggers are committed to their current content development methodology, others propose possible alternative, and less complex, solutions. The findings indicate that bloggers are aware of developments and trends, and are strategizing for the future.
