Noticed anything?

September 12, 2009

This site has been ad-free for nearly 4 years, but now I’m playing with advertising.  I hope you won’t find it intrusive, and I certainly don’t plan on having adverts pop up all over the place.
However, I hope you’ll realise that it’s one way to control costs and enable me to bring you more quality [...]

Blog downtime

If you tried to access A Girl’s Guide to Project Management last night/this morning (depending on where in the world you are) it might not have been here.

And over at…

April 3, 2009

I did my first Twitter interview with Kim Beasley on Friday: a very surreal experience.  It’s hard to condense your answers to 140 characters.  We chatted about project management and some strategies for new project managers and businesses to ensure they get the best out of their project initiatives.

Should I Twitter?

February 17, 2009

I’ve not taken the step to Twitter yet, but I’m thinking about doing it.  Is it seriously worth it?  Advice welcome from people who tweet already!
In a bid to make it easier for you guys, I’ve added a Share This link to posts, so you can save, share, email and bookmark anything that takes your [...]

Redesign in progress!

January 11, 2009

Apologies if you are browsing here this weekend. The site looks awful – especially if you are looking at it in Internet Explorer.

New Year’s resolutions…

January 5, 2009

I don’t make New Year’s resolutions.  There isn’t any point, as I know I am going to break them.  I have always said that if I’m tempted to make a resolution I’ll live with the idea through January and then make the resolution in February.  I never get as far as making resolutions in February, [...]
