Is Your Project On-Time, Does Anyone Care, and Are You Being Heard

Bruce — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 03:42:07 +0000

Published three articles.

Two on answering the questions 1) Is Your Project On-Time Project Management Tools, and 2) Does Anyone Care If Your Project Is On-Time?

One on Project Manager, Are You Being Heard? Will follow-up this one with a mid week on “How do you get others to try our your ideas?”

Twitter approach is to take the current article and publish excerpts of it each day.

Published the The Ultimate Project Management Tool. Also changed my domain name to PMToolsThatWork.com (was: project-management-tools.thruhere.net). It is an interesting challenge to go find and change all the references to the domain name.

Connecting To Others

My primary site, latest article is: Avoid This Schedule Trap!, now gets a regular smattering of hits. This helps me make sure the plumbing is all working. Have much more I want to do and improve upon. Looking at other sites and getting a lot of good ideas.

Working on getting connected to more people and sites talking about software project management.

I also noticed that my hub page had popped up to the 70s ratings, so maybe my approach was OK after all.

Quicken Is A Great Project Management Tool Hub

First foray into Hubs. Published http://hubpages.com/hub/Quicken-Is-A-Great-Project-Management-Tool. Nice system, I like the approach, but my hub score (measure of how good the hub is) went down as I added more media!? I’ll stick with keeping it simple.

Know Your Averages

Published Knowing Your Average Is Powerful! A simple concept of just tracking things under your nose. You can fix years of “this is how it works” misconceptions by just measuring “it”.
