I thought I was being so original by writing a project management blog. And then I happily discover there is a community of smart, funny, experienced PM’s out there merrily writing online. Here are some of the best I have come across:

1. Papercut Edge ~ Geoff Crane is one of my favourites; he can translate an incident with his dog into a project relevant lesson. Beautifully designed.
2. A Girls Guide to Project Management ~ Elizabeth Harrin has some great reviews of project relevant software and books. She is an expert in social media – especially useful for those managing project teams across borders.
3. How to Manage a Camel ~ Lindsay Scott is a Director at Arras People, a specialist project recruitment company. I’m impressed with the recent and relevant market research published here. Also great tips on recruitment, redundancy and getting into project management.
4. Silicon Beach ~ Andrew Davies and Heather Buckley run Silicon Beach Training from Brighton. This blog is jam-packed with posts on leadership, social media, and training. They also have some great free resources available for download.
5. The Critical Path ~ Derek Huether is US based writer and project leader with a focus on PMI and Agile methods. Anyone looking to sit PMP should check out the free study tools.
6. Stepping into Project Management – Newbie’s Diary ~ I really like this blog written by an Assistant Project Manager experiencing the joys and woes of project life. Really honest, perceptive posts.
7. Project Offices ~ one of the few blogs I have come across that specialises in PMO; sharp, clean design with interviews and networking opportunities for those in London. Also written by Lindsay Scott of Arras People.
8. Managing the Work ~ is the blog of Daptiv, a PPM software solution. I like the whole company focus of posts; leadership and management as well as project work. Good resources too!
9. Project Shrink ~ Bas de Baar, has an engaging writing style, he is all about the people on projects. I can confirm that he is also a great lunch date :)

Bonus: not strictly a project management blog, Sexy Executives pokes gentle fun at corporate photography. Its like a magical mystery tour around a familiar meeting table. The description of Peter Schwab above: ‘The silly tie was probably a Christmas present from a grandchild, and he’s pulling it off well. What a nice man. Bet he doesn’t drink. Bet he doesn’t even need to drink. Imagine being that happy and relaxed without first having to drink four pints. He’s saving a fortune’.

Do let me know the links to your favourite project blogs!
