Documentation

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Have gotten a few emails and comments about the need to document what I do. Seems like I’m not the only one out there being charged with this particular challenge this year. It’ll be interesting to follow along with others as we all do this, so please, if you have ideas, stories, ongoing projects of your own, basically anything to add, drop me a line from time to time and I’ll try and keep some sort of running commentary of my own discoveries along side every one else’s.

My favorite bit of feedback, though, came from Mark, who referenced his company requiring all of staff to make “Mack Truck Notes”. The notes they’ll refer to if you got hit by a Mack truck crossing the street. I might have to steal that… 🙂

    The last post was about some people, this one is about some days. Some days nothing works. Some days the internal Microsoft Mail Postoffice has random and sporadic problems. Some people can send messages fine, some people’s messages don’t get delivered until the user initiates a Send/Receive manually, despite the setting to check every “x”…

  • Weekend traffic observations

    Some random thoughts from looking at traffic patterns for this site: Most of you read while you’re working. Not surprisingly, since I mostly blog about work, while I’m working. 🙂 Traffic peaks mid-week generally and drops slightly on Friday before dropping significantly over the weekend. The drop in traffic on weekends is less in the…

    So the wife was checking out Blogskins the other day and came up with a new 3-column layout for her blog. Her search inspired me to find a nice calm, comfortable skin for the Child Abuse Survivor Blog. So I got that going for me. The challenge now is to find a decent 3-column layout…

  • What the hell is a "memetracker"?

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

    I’ve been watching the comments on Scoble’s post since I posted my early thoughts this afternoon. I had another thought that came to mind this evening as I read through the comments. I think it’s important to think about the type of person who is using tools like Memeorandum and others. Scoble gushes about how…
