		<description><![CDATA[Probably one of the most common mistakes in Software Development is to allow Estimates to become Commitments.  This article looks at story point estimation in scrum, and how velocity is a better tool for monitoring progress through to delivery.  If your interested in the arguments that can be presented to the business for velocity metrics over estimation for setting delivery dates, read on. ]]></description>

The book has been around for awhile but its concepts are worth understanding.  Its a great book about how Social Technologies have changed the way companies relate to their customers.  Not only that but how companies can benefit from Social Technologies within their own organisation.  Its a good read, get hold of a copy.  The book is rich with Internet law, marketing tips, research and good practice.  It gave me some ideas on how Groundswell could be used to provide a product owner with some powerful tooling.]]></description>
