• The project would not have been started if the truth had been told about the cost and timescale.
• A two-year project will take three years, a three year project will never finish.
• When the weight of the project paperwork equals the weight of the project itself, the project can be considered complete.
• A badly planned project will take three times longer than expected - a well planned project only twice as long as expected.
• Warning: dates in a calendar are closer than they appear to be.

I was looking for a free blog engine today on Google. And because the keywords included "ASP .NET" and "blog", I came across this blog

Chris Burrows .NET Blog

Here I found a collection of msdn videos on ASP .NET 2.0 . As i have already searched and seen some, this site is very helpful as it has all the videos categorized.

http://blogs.madtechnology.net is a site that hosts bloggers who write about .NET as far as I have seen. Looks very interesting...

The next version of the .NET Framework has already been launched. Why did we not hear of it? Why did everybody keep asking if it was dead with the rise of WinFX? That is because IT IS WinFX :)

To put us out of our 'misery and pain' :) Microsoft has announced that we will still develop in .NET, because that what  WinFX is: .NET 3.0

So the name of my blog is still in fashion :))

Frunzaresc internetul. Asta fac atunci cand sunt plictisita sau pe jumatate adormita. Am plecat de la blogul postului precedent si am trecut prin mai multe bloguri romanesti. Din link in link am ajuns aici: http://www.bookblog.ro/  Un proiect care doreste realizarea unei biblioteci online de recenzii de carti. Frumos.

"Este uimitor ca inca mai suntem in viata, pentru ca noi am mers cu bicicleta fara casca, genunchiere si cotiere; nu am avut scaune speciale in masini, nu am aruncat la gunoi bomboanele care ne cadeau din greseala pe jos, nu am avut pastile cu capac special sa nu fie desfacut de copii, nu ne-am spalat pe maini dupa ce ne-am jucat cu toti cainii si toate pisicile din cartier, nu am baut doar apa imbuteliata, ne-am tavalit si balacit prin toate baltile si nu am tinut cont de cate lipide si glucide mancam. Noi am auzit cum s-a tras la Revolutie, noi am fost martorii a trei schimbari de bancnote si monede, noi am ras la bancuri cu Bula, noi am fost primii care auauzit-o pe Andreea Esca, noi suntem cei care mai tinem minte emisiunea „Feriti-va de magarus". Suntem o generatie de invingatori, de visatori, de first-timers…"

• Metrics are learned men's excuses.
• For a project manager overruns are as certain as death and taxes.
• Some projects finish on time in spite of project management bestpractices.
• Fast - cheap - good - you can have any two.
• There is such a thing as an unrealistic timescale.
