Blogging on Blogging on Project Management

June 1st, 2003 by Hal

While this is a blog about project management, I thought a few points about blogging might be useful to the readers. Dave Winer, one of the founders of the blogging phenomenon, has recently left his position at Scripting News and joined the faculty at Harvard. His writing on blogging has always been good. His latest piece describing the elements of a weblog is excellent, What makes a weblog a weblog?

I encourage you to read Dave's essay. It may provide you with a broader perspective on what I am up to with this weblog. While you're on his page take a look at two other articles: Business Is Toying With a Web Tool, by Amy Cortese, New York Times and What We Do When We Blog, by Meg Hourihan, co-founder of Blogger and co-author of We Blog: Publishing Online with Weblogs.

What’s even more interesting is using blogs as PM tools.
Consider: they offer easy collaboration; ready presentation of documents (such as a project plan); automatic archiving (which means a built-in, organized, exportable, searchable project history).

"I do not regard the problem as something that suppliers are responsible for. We must work together so that we are fully aware of where suppliers are."

Bernstein closes saying, "At Toyota, they know that doing the best job of serving the customer is what makes the company profitable."
