Twinstan's interesting links roundup on Diigo (weekly)

• Frameworks Are The Future of Design

  This deck gives a food for thought on the way that web applications need to be conceived of from a "Web 2.0" perspective. The principles postulated seem to me to be solid. I am not so sure about the technical details (not my field ,-)), but I like the comparison of developers to the proverbial canary in the mine a lot.

• Deck on simple change management approach

  Simple, clear, average, but usable.

• DSDM Atern Handbook V2 / 1

  Somehow I managed to miss the fact that the latest version of DSDM (Dynamic systems development method) - aka Atern - is available entirely free of charge as a nifty handbook. I think this version is more complete and easier to apply than the previous versions (but I really have only ever tried out individual elements of the models and never wholesale, but might try it out for fun).

  Good solid stuff...

• Business Analyst: a title that doesn’t reflect the profession

  A nice little blog entry arguing that the term Business Analyst is misleading - I couldn't agree more, though I do not like the term synthesis which they use to express another of the key activities - I would keep it simply and call it "design" (be that solution, customer experience, business model, business process , system or service design).

  Both the actual materials on lean management in the startup space (by Eric Ries, the current Mr Lean-Startup) and the site hosting the course (udemy.com) are worth checking out.
