Projects Are About Humans. Now Deal With That!

Free Project Management Education - Subscribe To Feeds

Sometimes things are so obvious to me, that I forget that there are people around that might not know about it: in this case I am talking about the power of website feeds. This is how I keep my Project Management knowledge on the edge, this is the way how I educate myself on my profession… And the best part of it… It's all free.

More and more websites about Project Management are publishing their content in a so-called RSS feed. This is just a small xml stream that allows an application to get the articles and display them to a reader. The best part of this is that a reader can handle thousands of website feeds, so you only have to look at your reader and you will have the latest information available. No more surfing around!

Last summer I really changed the speed of learning on Project Management. I started using Google Reader to read almost a hundred blogs and other websites. Every morning I log into the free reader and I can read all the articles about Project Management, just like a newspaper. Heck, better than my newspaper!

For me it was an eye opener…!

If you don't use Google Reader yet, open a free account …

Your reader will first be empty, you have to subscribe to website feeds. You do this by entering a feed address.

My feed is: http://feeds.feedburner.com/projectshrink

Every website that displays this image has a feed. Just enter the website address in the subscribe box, and you will be fine.

I publish the best articles I find on other blogs about Project Management. You can also subscribe to that feed, so you only get the best of the best :)

The address for that feed is: http://www.softwareprojects.org/reader
