Chapter 12 & Charleston chews
August 30th, 2004
Ha. Ha ha ha. I am on chapter 12. What would you be doing right now had you stayed at Microsoft? eh? I bet you wouldn’t have even read a book up to chapter twelve. Yet here I am. La de da. Woo hoo. Look at me.
For reasons I can not explain a persistent craving I’ve had for the last two months is for Charleston chews. Yes, that’s right. The original flavor. I even tried to satisify said craving, twice: once on my road trip to Denver. Once again after I got back. But it’s still there.
Interviewing PMs
August 18th, 2004
I’m at 2/3rds mark and it seemed smart to go talk to people - interview people - and get some new perspectives. Just shut up and listen to other people rant about managing teams and projects. So I’ve lined up a list of about 10 or 12 people I’ve worked with, or knew, that a) would be willing to chat b) would have something interesting to say c) managed to line-up their schedules with mine. Going well so far - I’m doing good at the staying quiet part. So far I haven’t felt there’s much a want to change about the book as written, but I bet these interviews are refining my ideas, or shifting how I’m going to write about things.
