Plogs - Project Management Blogs -- In The Virtues of Chitchat at cio.com, Michael Schrage writes about the potential of project logs in weblog form -- plogs...
"The simple truth is, many organizations may need plogs to discover their own simple truths about how well (or how poorly) their projects are going. Maybe plogs will be more successful as project communication media for departments outside of IT. Wouldn't that be ironic? That's the sort of emergent managerial phenomenon that somebody might well decide to launch a blog about."
I'm not sure how applicable it would be in my new environment, in which projects typically range only from 2 to 6 weeks in duration, although as a lessons learned depository or as center of discussion of process breakdowns and fixes, there could be some value.
