The Dean weblog as project-management tool

October 5th, 2003 · 1 Comment

Project management is a pain–even if you’re lucky enough not to need Microsoft’s software for it.

I bet weblogs, on the model of the Dean weblog, could make big projects work better. How?

  • Keep the blog aimed at your target but encourage much wider input
  • Make sure suggestions get heard at the top, and heard fast.
  • Don’t confuse criticism–which is often valid and always helpful–with obstructive “trollery”
  • Keep your team psyched and headed for the target.

This all seems so obvious that I have to bet lots of other people know it.


Racing off to BloggerCon 2–it’s free! Hope to see all of you there!

    Yes, we have connectivity, thanks once again to Kevin Marks. More on technology later.
