Maybe it is clear that in the past few months a lot of things have changed on this blog. A new header, a new format, new features and a number of things that have disappeared (including a few new features ).

This weblog has two functions: first off course informing visitors of this blog. I hope that the visitors will ‘take home’ or even ‘learn’ something on this blog when it comes to Internet marketing and/ or Internet project management. A starting point for looking at how you can best organize your online activities. In addition, this is also place where I can give my opinion, but also where I can try out things. And most of the time those ‘things’ are certain online features. For example, the ability to chat live with me on this weblog. Chances are that such a function will disappear again if it is not used enough. But hey, I’ve tried it.

In this post I would like to give a brief overview of all the possibilities that this blog is currently offering and what I still intend to do in the coming months with this blog. That way you as a visitor will get a picture of what you can expect this blog.

Ik ben dus net terug van vakantie. Het was heerlijk, maar op een aantal dingen had ik mijn ‘projectmanagement’ misschien wat beter kunnen doen. Ik kwam tot tien dingen die je kan leren van op vakantie gaan die gerelateerd zijn aan het projectmanagement rondom de bouw van een internetsite.[/lang_nl][lang_en]I just returned from two weeks holiday. Completely (well almost) offline. That can be very relaxing. You think of some good ideas and some things stand out. For example, I noticed as project manager of Internet, once again, that project management is everywhere. Not only in constructing a website. Project Management, for example, is also the proper management of a holiday. If you don’t manage your things your holiday will be a disaster. Manage it really good and you’ll have a great holiday.

So I just got back from holiday. It was delicious, but on a number of things I maybe should have done my ‘project management’ better. Therefore I came up with ten things you can learn from going on holiday related to project management around the construction of an Internet site:[/lang_en] Continue Reading »
