what about if after sharing the rules with your team members and they did not embrace it ,
what will be the alternative to the rules?

Thanks for the post. Does a ‘blog’ platform serve as a good platform for Project Management in your experience?

Also, have you had any experience with some of the Social Software (wiki’s) to serve as the platform for Project Management?

Yes on both counts. Group authored weblogs can serve as a communication tool that collects the conversation in one place rather than scattered across email boxes. You’d want to have a weblog that included categories and you’ll need a means for uploading and linking to files.

I am in the process of using a wiki with one of my clients. We created a private wiki environment that allows all members of the extended project community to learn from and support one another. The overhead is small. Community building is the big payoff. My projects are usually in the AEC industry where people come together on projects as strangers. The wiki offers a mechanism for accelerating the development of relationships.

Then there is the aspects of project admin. What issues are outstanding? for whom? when are they promised complete? What’s coming up in the next few weeks? All these questions and more can easily be addressed with either or a combination of the tools.

Hal,

Will from Sutter Health suggested I might benefit from being involved with the wiki. What do I need to do to become part of this exciting process?
