I’ve just spoken at BarCampLondon2 on the topic of Project Management Basics for Busy Geeks. Obviously the best way to experience this was to have come on down to BarCamp in London this weekend, but for those who are a little far away, I’ll be doing a write-up later on.
UPDATE:
In the meantime, for those who may or may not have been here, you can find both Powerpoint and PDF versions of the presentation here. (I used PDFOnline to convert from PPT –> PDF, for those interested)

[...] I’ll be talking about Geek Project Management, which is a topic I feel pretty comfortable speaking on.

[...] I’ve just done my talk on Geek Project Management at today’s Refresh Edinburgh event. It seemed to be fairly well received (fingers crossed anyway!). Some of the content was pretty similar to my BarCampLondon2 presentation, but I’ve done a fairly significant rework on it so I think it’ll be a lot easier to take away some immediately useful tools.
