Warmest Greetings,

:: Thursday, April 17, 2003 ::

Warning! I just received word that a spam email with the subject "Your Google Rankings" contains the mmvirus (worm). Kill it on sight. Do not open it!

Part Three in my series, "Being Tops with Your Users and the Search Engines" has hit the Internet waves via Jill Whalen's Advisor newsletter sent yesterday. You can read it in all its glory here >>> Obtaining User Feedback

Project management is a highly valued, though not often welcome, website or software development activity. Support and resources for PM are available at the Center for Business Practices.

For PM professionals, this may be quite helpful >>>Project Management Benchmarking Consortium . Quote: "PM Solutions' research arm, The Center for Business Practices (CBP), is making its resources available directly to organizations through its new Project Management Benchmarking Consortium. The Project Management Benchmarking Consortium is a professional membership program designed to provide organizations with the information they need to identify, understand, and adapt best practices to improve their project management performance."

The 3-Click Rule dance step is analyzed by Josh Porter at UIE.com. See an excellent review of this standard user design guideline in >>> Testing the Three-Click Rule - "After hearing about the rule for many years and having it as a requirement in some client projects, we decided to find out if the rule was true."

Hey. When is the next Enigma CD coming out anyway and whatever happened to Enya? I need more working music.

Will be on holiday after today. See you next week. If you love me, you'll email me. >>> Love Letters. and finally,

Thanks to the gentleman who emailed to tell me my website testing page wasn't loading in Netscape, and for not making me feel too terribly embarressed about that!

Cheers,
