Goodbye, And Hope to See You Soon!

December 16, 2008 by JurgenAppelo

This is my last post on AgileSoftwareDevelopment.com. I let Artem know that I need to concentrate on my own blog for a while. The success of my site is a welcome surprise for me, but it also means that it's demanding all of my attention.

On AgileSoftwareDevelopment.com I published 46 articles this year, including some timeless classics such as 10 Principles of Agile Project Time Management, The 12 Best Questions for Team Members, and Oh My God, They Fixed the Bug!. I also published my share of useless and controversial drivel, such as Professionalism = Knowledge First, Experience Last, and Specialization is Good. But I had fun writing it, and I'm glad that most of the people throwing bricks at me missed me.

Thank you all for reading, adding comments, and providing me with your feedback. Writing is no fun at all when there's nobody writing back at you! Those of you who enjoyed my writing might want to check out my own blog at Noop.nl. (Artem generously allowed me to promote it in this last post, so I'm gonna squeeze this while I can...) Besides visiting the blog, you can also follow me on Twitter, or subscribe to my feed. And even if you couldn't care less about me or my writings, then you could at least have a look at the Top 100 Blogs for Developers. There are lots of other great blogs out there. (And both ASD and Noop.nl are performing well in it!)

Of course, I also trust you will keep reading this site. I am happy and proud to have been able to support Artem and the others in making this blog a great place to read everything about agile software development. I'm sure they can keep growing the site, even if it has to be without me.

Goodbye everyone, and hope to see you some place soon!

It's not often you find a technical person who can write; thanks for peaking my interest in agile methodologies and good luck with NOOP.nl!
