JB, I have to agree with Andre. We have so many MBAs and bean counters controlling what is being done at the highest levels, mostly with very little in the world practical knowledge/experience that they need to be shown/told how to get out of the "book learning" and into the Real world. What else can you expect with a real idiot running the U.S.A. at the VERY highest level. I thought most of the advice was well conceived; although I already practice it myself - in my real world.

JB,

at least here in Brazil, we need those advises in big, bold, marquee-sized, letters!!!!!

I've seen junior companies on my university conduct five or more meetings during a week window without no pratical application...

common sense, is never, enough!

;-)

PS: right now, I am struggling with javascript.

Hi Andre,

Do we really need such advices as "Don't have meetings" or
"Design the interface before you start programming" or even
"Build something you can manage" ?

I thought these things were known for years if not decades
(except by Microserfs perhaps)...

Folks,

many here are wanting to join the web app bandwagon. I suggest
reading the "Getting real" book by 37signals which is by far the most
successful start-up enterprise in this camp today. They out of
nowhere created or provided the means for creation of: Ruby on Rails,
prototype library, scriptaculous, basecamp, backpack and others.

very good reading
