How To Plan Projects With Distributed Teams - Google Video


"Hubert Smits will give a hands-on overview of the activities that are involved in larger agile ... all » projects. Larger projects stretch out over more then a few months and have more then a single team involved. Things get more complex when the teams are not collocated. Hubert has based the talk on his paper "Multi Level Planning for Agile Projects" and presents a practical implementation of the planning levels. The experience he uses in the presentation is taken from his work as an agile coach for Rally Software Development, which brings him to projects with teams scattered across the globe: the US, Europe, Middle East and Far East" Posted by lindenb to Project Group management video Google on Thu Apr 05 2007

What is a Mash-Up? (4/6/07)


Cisco is thought likely to let the WebEx media tone network be available to 3rd parties for the development of mash-up applications. Little has happened yet on media tone, but here is what the mash-up concept looks like on Google Maps.

Chris shares a behind-the-scenes look at the development of Habari.  He talks about the other members of the team: Scott Merrill ~ skippy.net, Owen Winkler ~ asymptomatic.net & Rich Bowen ~ wooga.drbacchus.com. We learn about the vision and the future of Habari and what Chris is still doing with WordPress.

I’m excited to get involved at the ground level, reading-up at Google Code, the Habari dev wiki and glued to habariproject.org.

In the most simple terms, Habari is a collaborative open source blogging platform in active development. With Habari, you are given the power to create a blog or web journal of your own.

More Twittering

I went through the typical Twitter experience. I tried it, sent a few messages, connected with a few friends, and then turned it off on my phone as I was getting killed with text messages.

I think the best way for me to use Twitter is text my updates in and use the web to display them to all of you. I've put a twitter badge on my right sidebar and have set up the system to nudge me for an update once a day.

I realize that updating once a day sort of defeats the instant gratification aspects of the system. Maybe I am just too old to communicate that way. Or maybe if I start doing it once a day, then I'll gradually start doing it more often.

I was sitting with Jason Calacanis the other day in his office and he posted to Twitter that we were having coffee. I would not have thought to do that. Maybe in time I will.

But regardless of how I use Twitter, I do see a lot of benefits of a communication system like this. Dave Winer has written thoughtfully about what Twitter might turn into over time. And this Technology Review piece suggests that developers are already building on top of the Twitter API:

But at least a few independent Web developers are still enamored with Twitter, and they're using the programming interfaces provided by Obvious to build mashups that give messages more context.

I think there's a lot of merit to the idea that Twitter can be a part of the Internet infrastructure like Google Maps or FeedBurner. And so I intend to keep trying to use it.


Podcast: The end for Vonage?


You’ll never guess what Google found in their latest search…a 3-foot python! The giant snake named Kaiser was on the loose! It happened in the company’s offices in the Chelsea area of New York. Google has been known in the past to issue “fake” press releases as a part of the April Fools’ Festivities, but reports confirm the incident had nothing to do with the recent passing of the holiday.
