Project Management made easy
icon1 Harjit Singh Ubhi | icon2 Web | icon4 04 29th, 2008| icon3No Comments »

I think for every IT project manager, the critical task is about Managing the Client, his project technically, workwise, manpower wise and deadline wise. Client’s email coming in left right and center, there is always lack of clarity as the project proceeds due various reasons, no initial scope defination, specification documentation, etc.

I am trying to put some light on the core part of it, when it comes to managing a project, wherein the Project Manager is the primary interface between the client (who is excellent in traditional way of running his business) and the company, where he has a dedicated team working on the project.

While the project is on and proceeding towards acheiving the milestones set, client generally have the urge of discussing it with their colleagues and peep into competitors sites looking for something different or better and the end result is they come back to the project manager with some ideas in the form a long email.

Ace project is a great web based online application to make sure every task under a project is taken care within the desired timelines, It is engineered really well to take care of even minor details of big projects, which always turns out be disaster or small bug leading to failure of the application. Ace Project allows all the details coming clients and the team to the project manager at one place and also has time stamps to acheive clarity at the end and also it has time sheet and other login level rights which adds to the professionalism of handling projects.

They offer a Unlimited demo version for Free, check it out.

Block Spam comments on your blog

I am sure everybody specially regular bloggers are sick of deleting and marking spam those Viagra comments and other spam comments, which are waste of time.

Every morning you check your admin email of your blog , you see 4 out of 5 comments which are absolutely spams.

These spam comments are posted via scripts running like robots or bots, which can easily see an open input form and fill it with Junk data. The problem is identifying whether it is filled by a Human or a Script?

S0me dude way back in 2000 has already addressed this by introducing Verification Code method within every form. CAPTCHA official site makes it easier for non programmers and non techy users to implement this small script concept, which ensures that only and only a Human can fill the form/comment box etc.

You can download wordpress plugin and say goodbye to all spammers :)

Webfuser, Good News for Non Developers

IT Industry is always focusing on making the Web applications easy to use.
A Canadian firm has gone ahead by hosting a web development platform reducing the learning curve of IT based applications.

Webfuser is aimed at non-programmers who has the urge of building websites and but cannot do it due to lack of programming language. But with Webfuser a Web Development platform one can easily create custom web applications.

Webfuser has a graphical environment, which gives flexibility over layouts and also has visual representation of code, wherein any layman can easily deal with complex web applications. It can cut overall development effort and time by 50 to 60%. I wonder what will happen to IT professionals :)

Here are some highlights of it :
1. Generating Report via Report Editor in PDF and Excel Form
2. Ajax Support to server pages faster
3. Printing Graphical Reports

This application is the best fit for SOHO (Small Office / House Office) types of environments, but not fit for Customized applications done by big IT firms.
