ooh; d'ya suppose these would work when working with an inhouse
developer, too? ;)

as our sole intranet developer/designer/implementer, I have to remember
to do all these things for myself when I'm creating a tool for end
users, because they *won't* think of them. and when I work with another
developer, I always try to do the same for them.

works with my bandmates, too, come to think of it. hell, I even used it
on my kids, and they turned out alright :)
