Chapter 3. Project Definition and Management
In which the King of Sweden learns a valuable lesson about project scoping.

I'm taking a pragmatic approach to these topics, based on my own experiences within the New Media sector.

We then move on to topics that are significant in the execution of your project: project management and quality assurance.
