I’m sure the concept of pointless meetings is familiar - too many people gathered to discuss some issue but after spending hours together no decision has been reached - only the next meeting with a few more people. Here’s one tool which might help a little.

I should begin by noticing that the idea is not my own - it has been as far as I know been used before. I came across it at the Copenhagen Business School where one of the teachers in Organization told about it (and credited it to Søren T. Lyngsøe A/S). The idea is called the meeting clock and it’s quite simple (just as so many excellent ideas are). The clock doesn’t tell time, it shows how much the meeting cost.

Lost history

This site started once upon a time in 1998, but has changed through the years and as I’ve switched CMS systems, servers and played around, the posts from the first few years are lost in history.

This site also used to contain Danish posts, English posts and a mixture of personal and developer related stuff.

From 2010 and on wards I’ve tried to post only in English and keep it to technical/development content, and moved other content in Danish to my site in Danish.
