Project managers do it with diagrams

A better way maybe

For a long time we have found that if you want to REALLY include the client into project management transparency you simply have to use better tools.

Gantt and Pert methodology always will depend on the sic " guru " to explain and leaves most management totally in the dark.

Want REALLY good project management integration go use http://basecamphq.com/ and to visualize like you have never seen it before link Basecamp to http://www.beedocs.com/ 3D Timeline

Listen , Listen , Listen to your client they will always steer you right ( pun intended )http://www.theregister.co.uk/Design/graphics/icons/comment/happy_32.png

UK.gov 'HyperHighway' aims to 'speed up the internet by 100x'

What in Public ?

Saw a polyti deliver in public once and it was not pretty - careful what you ask4

We will sell you

A photon receiver , just send my brother in Lagos a Gazzilion pounds and he will shit ( sorry ship ) you a boxhttp://www.theregister.co.uk/Design/graphics/icons/comment/it_angle_32.png

Pollyticians speak hyper

My Parrot can do that 2http://www.theregister.co.uk/Design/graphics/icons/comment/pirate_32.png

Wood Will Work

Preferably balsa makes great tubeshttp://www.theregister.co.uk/Design/graphics/icons/comment/big_brother_32.png

100 Gigglebits

Or 12.5 gigabyte - simple packet switching sends the overflow and my granny and she delivers it by bus , far faster, anything missing blame Blair http://www.theregister.co.uk/Design/graphics/icons/comment/coat_32.png

No Cups Dummy

You plug the string in their ears , cups any size D or whatever total waste of money in the wrong place. Or with WiFi you only need a 6" piece ( Ho Ho ) at each end to make it work. Although you cannot rub the string piece to hard or the receiver person looses controlhttp://www.theregister.co.uk/Design/graphics/icons/comment/pint_32.png

Hyper is it ( Bring on the Bitter )

"Photonics Hyper Highway". Said real fast by my dog is amusing. Emphasis on Hyper as imaginary things flying through the air courtesy of boffins , 100 x the speed of a tortoise does not make it a Ferrari no mater how many labels they put on it. These Bozos don't even know the difference between a bit and a byte ( 8 x bits ) and their literature shows it. How fast do you want it madam ? - get outa here. We are using ESP in Yankee land courtesy of our Pres so therehttp://www.theregister.co.uk/Design/graphics/icons/comment/boffin_32.png

Wife Upset ? So was mine

Totally true

1971 MODERN ?

Achtung Achtung - UK guy believes 1971 is modern ?

Actually old chap most American airframes in use today where build with a lot of military switch capability in them as part of the gov funding requirements in case you Brits invade us and try to steal our cold beer againhttp://www.theregister.co.uk/Design/graphics/icons/comment/pint_32.png

The flying Dildo

Ref - The previous Nimrod was doing frightfully hush-hush stuff in Afghanistan –

Yes but showing the Afgans how to put a cock on your head with a flying dildo image will not impress anyone, unless its one of those get in line or this will happen to you messages

Nimrod Brits seen at NAS Jacksonville

Dont think its a surprise as we have heard that several brits in RAF uniforms have been on a tour of proposed Poseidon bases in the US end of last year including Naval Air Station Jacksonville . At least they may have been brits walking real upright and bitching about the cold beer. I couldn't find any female information on the state of their rods , nim or otherwise http://www.theregister.co.uk/Design/graphics/icons/comment/pint_32.png

Numbnuts Numrod

Everyone knows that MOD would like to have a rod that works and none would use an antique nimrod, the wimen wouldn't stand for it. It was probably a Job creation tool anyway and they at least could have pulled the rivets outa the holes one by one ( rapidly ) to keep the workers peckers up ( Pick your own puns )

The Tower of BS ( MOD)

Also supposed to be the creator of the "Tower of Babel Lota BS in that one " which fits MOD perfectly well ----ironic that it will be replaced by Boeing P-8 Poseidon ( God of the sea and Earth Shaker ) shows you have to be real careful about your nicknames

The thing on the front its stiff

Shucks I thought the thing on the front of the nimrod looked quite stiff although funny mounted on its head ( three puns in that one ) http://www.theregister.co.uk/Design/graphics/icons/comment/joke_32.png

There is one

Poseidon P-8A build on the 737 airframe / bulk discounts for our limey friends starting at $125M http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zgTv5DrJLcM&feature=relatedhttp://www.theregister.co.uk/Design/graphics/icons/comment/happy_32.png

Nimrods replaced by Poseidon

The Boeing promo for the P-8A is not bad either http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zgTv5DrJLcM&feature=related

The 737 airframe totally rocks and is one of the most reliable in the worldhttp://www.theregister.co.uk/Design/graphics/icons/comment/thumb_up_32.png
