More on asshole driven development
June 26th, 2007
Hey folks - apologies if you’ve had problems accessing the site. The last blog post on asshole driven development was a hit. I’ve had more traffic on that then anything I’ve written in history.
If you want more commentary and painfully funny methodologies there are additional comment threads on the three major drivers of traffic: Digg & O’Reilly Radar, And Reddit.
Tiff Fehr has put together an analysis of the different methods and comments to date. Worth a look.
There are still about 120 comments in the queue (out of almost 400 total) - if yours doesn’t get posted, please don’t call me an asshole :) Many of them were redundant, bizarre or beyond my level of comprehension. They’ll all get read, but at 100+ comments I’ve got to filter some stuff out.
Not sure which of you got the run going, but thanks to all who passed my writing around.

How about ADDD — Attention Deficit Driven Development, where people work on tasks until…um…what were we talking about?
I think you get that many comment because you describe the reality of many software projects. I hope you include the development processes here in your book “The Art of Project Management”. It would be invaluebale for project managers to know these processes, so they know when something is wrong. And know why people dont listen to them anymore.
