We just put another site live today. This is for Monteith’s Single Source, a new craft beer which they have just launched today - it’s only available online, and by the bottle in the 29 Craft Bars from Friday. Things I have learned from temporarily wearing my Project Manager hat again: It’s really satisfying sticking with a project from the first ideas and planning right through to delivery It’s also very stressful, as is my regular job, but in a different way. I don’t think I realised just how different it was, having had such a long transition period away from Project Management Sometimes, Google Analytics code is actually supposed to go at the top Our team here does a damn good job, both in design and development Things always always take longer than you expect them to, so promise to deliver in double the time you expect to, and you will be about right (actually, I already knew that one, but haven’t actually put it into practice yet) Check who is using IE6, make sure you’re nice to them I am too optimistic when it comes to some things, and pessimistic when it comes to others. I need to swap those things. If you have to work all weekend, it’s cheaper to feed your dev team on delicious things from the supermarket than spend too much on Thai Sleep is underrated, don’t do without it

Things I have learned from temporarily wearing my Project Manager hat again:

  • It’s really satisfying sticking with a project from the first ideas and planning right through to delivery
  • It’s also very stressful, as is my regular job, but in a different way. I don’t think I realised just how different it was, having had such a long transition period away from Project Management
  • Sometimes, Google Analytics code is actually supposed to go at the top
  • Our team here does a damn good job, both in design and development
  • Things always always take longer than you expect them to, so promise to deliver in double the time you expect to, and you will be about right (actually, I already knew that one, but haven’t actually put it into practice yet)
  • Check who is using IE6, make sure you’re nice to them
  • I am too optimistic when it comes to some things, and pessimistic when it comes to others. I need to swap those things.
  • If you have to work all weekend, it’s cheaper to feed your dev team on delicious things from the supermarket than spend too much on Thai
  • Sleep is underrated, don’t do without it
