This week you will see my &#8220;Best of PM Network&#8221;, reviewing the articles and features that struck me to be &#8220;kinda cool&#8221;.  My methods of determining what&#8217;s &#8220;kinda cool&#8221; are mysterious, even to myself.  So sit back, buckle your seat belt, and get ready for an arbitrary ride through PM Network, 2007.  It may get a little bumpy.  (Although I promise to not post while enjoying New Years Eve intoxication.)<\/p>\n<p>If you are not currently a member of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pmi.org\">PMI<\/a>, I recommend it highly and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pmi.org\/Resources\/Pages\/PM-Network.aspx\">PM Network<\/a> is one of the many membership benefits.<\/p>\n<p>The list below will serve as an index to the series.
