REPORT BACKS

Collaboration tools session

  • Synchronous events, multitasking is a problem
  • Less is more, don`t have too many tools
  • Joomla! debugging session as example, different tools in combination

Database design:

  • From scratch vs. off the shelf, differences
  • Hybrid model
  • Think of the information before you go to the technology
  • Documentation is extremely important, wiki, tracker

Website cost:

  • Getting a sample invoice from a vendor
  • Be very aggressive and specific details
  • Use standard off the shelf items, custom has unforeseen costs
  • Large range of cost
