one-person(ship), revisited

As I mentioned previously, I gave a presentation at Internet Librarian about one-person project management. Most of what I spoke about (OK, all of it) was borne out of my experience with the web redesign project I worked on over the past 8 months, but really, I got the idea to talk about it when I saw Leah Buley’s presentation on “How to Be a UX Team of One” from IA Summit 2008 (sidebar: I missed the IA Summit this year but attended last year and I cannot wait for 2009. It’s an excellent conference if you’re interested in information architecture/design/usability).

So it was with some delight that I read the email about Buley’s virtual seminar on the same subject that’s happening next week. It’s a bit spendy for a one-hour virtual thing, but I suspect that it will be worth it for a number of library design/IA/UX types since, I’m assuming, a lot of us work in our own, cozy 1-person teams. I’ll be there.
