Project data base for questions and answers

I received an email tell me to check out askaboutprojects. I’m naturally suspicious of unsolicited emails but then I looked closer, the email had come in response to my latest blog post – yay, someone is reading my posts.

I took a look and I’m impressed. This is a site where you can ask and answer questions about project management.  The questions are all over the board and the answers range from a quick sentence to a detailed instructional message.

This might end up being a common source for lessons learned, a place to hear about new tools and ideas, or a great place to find answers to your common frustrations.

Here are a few samples:

Does it help to use a software to create the WBS

Four PMs gave answers about software and how to do a WBS.

If you had to hire a project manager to work with you which would be your top 5 requirements

A couple of interesting answers there now, neither had certification on their list.

How do you prioritize your tasks

Great ideas posted in answer to this one.

It seems to me that it’s common to hear PMs ask for the best way to develop stronger skills and improve their delivery and approach project after project. Ask About Projects seems like a great place to start.
