While doing my research here and there on the internet I got this guy talking about viral marketing campaigns and how readjusting the content he made a huge success on digg: buzz marketing exposed a step by step guide It was about ...procrastination ! some sort of top 10 rules...I genuinly started laughing at the randomness and success and "the big idea" Murphys laws!! After all if something can go wrong it will go wrong!
I searched the internet a little again and I found Murphys laws for just about anything, but collaboration...so there you go!
1. The remaining work to finish in order to reach your goal increases as the deadline approaches.
2. The first 90 % of a task takes ninety percent of the time. The last 10% of a task takes the other ninety percent.
3. Smile . . . tomorrow will be worse.
4. if something can go wrong it will go wrong
5. if something cannot go wrong, it will go wrong
6. If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something.
7. Thermodynamics law applying to assignments: Things get worse under pressure.
Well...enjoy!
