I've just returned from a trip overseas with limited internet access. Golly, it's amazing how attached one becomes to reading email and surfing the web. And in 2007, apparently not every hotel room has internet access! I didn't know how much I missed it until it was gone. So I'm back home again with an incredible backlog of posts in my favorite blogs.

Agile is a hot topic nowadays. The Cranky Product Manager writes So You Think "Agile" Methodologies Exempt You From Product Management. Scott Sehlhorst wonders Is Agile Bad For Software Development? (Scott has re-organized all of his articles on agile.) My take on the subject is here.

Bob at ack/nak adds to the agile converation, reminds us that nothing good comes of email, and offers a quick trick for doing a competitive assessment.

Those are the highlights of what I've been reading this morning in my RSS reader. Interesting stuff indeed.
