I am writing this post as a lessons learned logged and hope you all find it useful if you ever decide to rebuild your website. We kicked off a project 9 months ago to rebuild the site and make it all snazzy jazzy. Well I wish I could say things did not go to plan but sadly the problem is there was not great plan to start with. We had so many great ideas that the loose plan kept changing, deadlines got pushed back, things came up and we just got frustrated with the lack of progress. We were always veering sideways instead of moving forward and although we kept saying this was Agile development, really it was just disorganized tug of war over whose idea we would work on at the time. So heres the new deal. We have a rough, but slightly less rough plan. The end goal is to get the site up with a set of features which we will not be changing. After the site is live, we will look to make changes, one feature at a time. Now that plan is not rocket science but, neither is a website so why should we make the plan more complex than the final products? Hope you are all well. We are going to go back to more regular updates on this site until the new site is complete. Thank you all for your patience.
