Facebook Friends FriendFeed - 0 views

  • I’ve been using FriendFeed for awhile and if you subscribe to my feed you’ll see just about everything that I do online. My feed includes all the articles I bookmark with delicious. When I write a new blog post it automatically shares it on my feed. Every time I tweet on Twitter and when I update my status on Facebook, they’re included here. When I add a video to my favorites on YouTube it is shared here as well. Currently there are 58 different sites that you can link to your FriendFeed, so it’s like the one stop shopping place for everything online!
  • FriendFeed also has a search function where someone without even registering on the site, can easily search all FriendFeed updates.
  • Facebook has been in the news quite a bit this week which they started off with the announcement that they have acquired the social-identity aggregator, FriendFeed.

What's the magic project size to require PM oversight/overhead? - 0 views

  •  
    It's common to hear the all-purpose methodology nullifier from the client or salesperson, "But this is a small project!" The inside project manager hears this phrase when he tries to convince the project sponsor that a project plan, a materials list, and a written scope are necessary. The external IT service provider hears it from the salesperson when she tells him that the new engagement he's selling should include an additional 15% estimate for project manager duties.

      I don't know HOW many times I see otherwise capable leaders trying to make process changes to correct a single person's statistically anomalous behavior problem. Words of absolute wisdom.
  •  
    Some of the most common management mistakes - 1. Not communicating with the team. - Almost always a problem. 2. Continually focusing on the negative. 3. Changing policy due to one person. - This is a BIGGIE. 4. Not understanding the needs and concerns of your team. 5. Never admitting you're wrong or never taking responsibility.

In tight times, IT managers more likely to postpone than cancel a project - 0 views

  • We were surprised to find that IT managers find that postponement is better than canceling projects,
    • Steve Wilheir
       
      Canceling projects sets off warning bells. "Delaying" them lets you never do them without the sense of finality that cancelation conveys.

    A common concept in fundamental macroeconomics -- the capital projects are still out there. The needs for infrastructure are still there. We're just going to wait until the market shows us that it's a good time to actually move forward with it.

  • Nearly 30% of survey respondents (19 of 66) said their organization recouped their investment in immersive technologies in less than nine months, once their project(s) launched.
  • The top motivations for investment in immersive technology in 2008 /1Q 2009 were enabling people in disparate locations to spend time together, increased innovation, and cost savings or avoidance.
  • Early implementers are choosing the simplest use cases first. The most common were learning and training (80%, or 53 of 66 respondents focused on this use case) and meetings (76%, or 50 of 66 respondents). Some intend to take on more complex use cases in 2010 or 2011.

  • Immersive technology won out over a variety of alternatives primarily due to low cost and the increased engagement it delivers. The leading alternatives were Web conferencing and in-person meetings, followed by phone calls.
  • Work-related use of the Immersive Internet is in the early adopter phase. Before it can pass into the early majority phase, practitioners and the technology vendors who serve them must “cross the chasm.” The most common barriers to adoption are target users having inadequate hardware, corporate security restrictions, and getting users interested in the technology.
