"Owning the launch too" and "The 2-week plan"

Being willing to drop projects is probably the hardest thing for most organizations to do. Allowing projects to be killed without any shame or stigma is so healthy in the long run.

Heh... 37signals rediscovers the basics of project management :-)<p>Clear, individual ownership of pieces of work is a cornerstone of effective project management.

I think these 37signals blog posts are great!<p>I can't think of a single idea of theirs that I've adopted (some of them seem downright silly), but that's not the point. Their "against the grain" thinking adds a little perspective against all the corporate mind-numbing B.S. I'm so accustomed to seeing. These are people trying things out and sharing with us, not just some ivory tower "experts".<p>Very refreshing. Keep 'em coming.

2 week plan seems smart. Forces the issue.
