At the J. Boye Philadelphia 2010 conference, the J. Boye concept of ‘communities of practice’ is taken a step further. Web and interactive professionals meet in an ‘unconference’ designed to let them share insights, generate ideas, and make connections in an informal, vendor-free setting. This year, Janus asked attendees to jot down the questions they’ve been thinking about so far in 2010. Here’s what people were wondering about online strategy.

  • What is the difference between an acceptable web strategy and a kickass one? How does one make a kickass web strategy?
  • How can we get top management to truly realize the potential of online [sic]?
  • How do you get people to do what you know will help them (what they know will help them) but they have no interest in putting effort into?
  • What do you do to keep the web top-of-mind for senior leadership?
  • Why is digital strategy still so hard – should it be getting easier and better defined?
  • How to use awareness in management for your projects?
  • How to create a good user experience that mixes both online and offline strategies?
  • Will we finally stop focusing on the tools and care about the solutions and humans?
  • How do you keep up with technology changes? How do you encourage users to participate?
  • What is the measure of success for the web?
