Scrum

The guys over at AxoSoft, creators of the rather good OnTime software have produced a video Scrum in Under 10 Minutes as a quick introduction to Scrum.

Scrum is nothing earth shattering, and it’s not going to be a silver bullet for many people, but it’s well worth a look, and if followed correctly I’ve no doubt it will help a lot of projects run more smoothly.

Of course, the video is a gentle advert for the AxoSoft OnTime application, but it’s not forced at you so is worth a watch.

As it stands the company I work for has started using OnTime, but at the moment it’s just performing a to-do list and time logging role for me, and I suspect most of the other team. We’re yet to take the bull by the horns and make effective use of the many features.

Oh well, hopefully we’ll get there. Certainly on the task I’m working on at the moment a burn down chart (or even some smaller milestones) may have provided a morale boost that we are actually making progress.

Never mind.
