Exploring extreme programming, and thinking about how I can it implement the practices in my workplace. I've been following this for a while now, mulling, thinking, considering. I've been subscribed (on and off) to extremeprogramming@yahoogroups.com and also read several websites. I can say that programming as a career carries with it certain areas of frustration that seem to be common across the industry. The cool thing is that XP is aware of these and attempts to address these problem areas (apparently rather successfully). The bad thing is change is difficult, particularly in a corporate environment. And, I'm not really good at making things happen. Well, it'll be a learning experience. I'll periodically throw up links to articles I find informative and interesting regarding XP.
