Planner’s black-book

Charlie,



I think maybe grimoire is the word you’re looking for.

HI Tom,



Santana did play the guitar. I’m a fan of him way back long ago. You know the Hyppie days, anti war (Vietnam war),



Played the song "Black Magic Woman". so cool



Then later after 20 years make a revival with the same song "Black Magic Woman"



Lately been here in Dubai, performed to a sell out crowd. Old man never dies or could be like the sound



"my my hey hey, rock and roll is here to stay ...."



Juan is correct. I did refer to SATANAS not Santana.



SATANAS is a devil, the king of hell.



So I think we will change it, planner’s black book to some sort of ... i dont know how to say it in english.

Ha ha ha ha...

You made my days guys! I just can’t keep off laughing. This is very funny.



Yeah, I’ve just thought the book may have been turned into some other colors such as red or perhaps green...

----------------------------

Tom,

"Satanas", in Tagalog dialect, as referred by Charles is the king of the Hell. The equivalent of St Peter in the gates of Heaven.

Magigal power from SANTANA ! Doesn’t he play the guitar ?



In any case, in the interests of race relations and multi-culturism, can we please now refer to said book as "The Planners R0,G0,B0 Book"

Juan,



The planner’s black book existed before but "black is black"



Maybe pass by a black hole.



Besides if someone offers something, and if the person is sincere then you will get it, otherwise expect the worse, just pretend the book is non existing.



Also the thread is wierd "PLANNER’S BLACK BOOK". It connotes some sort of mystic or magical power from SATANAS or maybe some sort of ancient text that makes you the best ever planner in PP.



If I were you forget about it.

Juan, You should know by now that NOTHING ACTUALLY HAPPENS on this forum. People just procrastinate and muse about making the Planning world a better place... (children are our future etc etc...)

So, where’s the black book? What happened?

Dear PP Admin,



could you please put a more decent and dignified picture of yours? i just don’t want to see your two front teeth...

Hello Team,



We have rolled out a search function for the forum. We are sorry it took so long to organise and we hope it works ok.



Comments are welcomed to help us improve it from its simple beginnings.



PP Admin

Ok so ther was supposed to be a hyperlink in that last post of mine.



Lets give that another crack.



Go here - Searching Through The Planning Planet Site? [next time - use double quotes in the href]



If it doesnt work find the forum thread called, - Searching Through The Planning Planet Site?

I think that as soon as you log onto PP your looking at the ’Black Book’. PP admin have been trying to set up a search engine for the forum area to enable faster searching and topic searching.

It appears it was due for testing 5 months or so ago, go to forum and lets see if we can’t help out in getting this valuable upgrade happening.

No doubt, Planner black book is brilliant idea needs to be implemented in this forum asap so that we take advantage of these information issued by various sources/authorities at one place

sounds like a great idea, but the problem is (as demonstrated on this website) is that there are just SOOO many different types of planner out there. Just looking at my particular niche market (UK construction & fitout for schemes up to £20M), you will rarely find 2 planning positions in 2 different companies that are the same. People expect different things from planners that could extend to materials and resource management, costings, projected information, progress, information / document control, supply chain input as well as the standard "programme & progress" role.



I think this is the reason there is so little information out there on what is undoubtedly an important role. It even probably explains why there is such a shortage of (good) planners in the UK market today. It is nigh-on impossible to teach, and can only be learnt by some serious pro-active input from the person involved.



good luck with the book, but I doubt it will be an easy task

Michael,

I undertood.

Unfortunately I will not be able to help because I use other software.

Good luck,

Vladimir

Michael,

if you restrict project planning to the capabilities of some programs then you create User Manuals though maybe more broad and practical.

Regards,

Vladimir

Hello to all,



This is a great idea.



What Mike trying to say is something that comes from PP in general and planning ENGINEER in particular.



I like it.



Cheers,



charlie

So you plan to create a manual specifically for those planners that use MS Projects & Primavera?

Then I suggest to create the separate versions for each PM software and call them User Manuals.

Dear all

It’s really great to hear about Planner black book. This is starting to see the planning in a new horizon

Human Knowledge belongs to the world.

Hi

Sounds good - but could you perhaps set it up as part of the planning Plannet webbsite.
