4. Reviews
“In a culture filled with tweets, apps,
and high-resolution video, when users
need technical information and online
help, they no longer just want it
delivered fast; they want it delivered in
the most engaging and exciting way
possible. Bullet-point lists and 2D
slides do not cut it anymore. The way
we consume content is shifting, and at
Adobe, those working with technical
communication services are ready for
the change.”
