Richard,
I would love to see a (YouTube?) video of you or Mark or someone doing
the planning thing with note cards. I have never done it but it sounds
like a good way to go. I too gave up flowcharting years ago for most
projects, but sometimes I still run into something that demands that
kind of planning.
Thanks -
Phil

Some of the most productive time I spend in development is with 3x5
cards spread out on the floor, representing function points or UI
elements, looking for the flow and patterns between them. To someone
I do the index card thing, sometimes just on pieces of paper, and then
move the blocks of code around until it starts to take shape. I
haven't yet found any computer program that beats this process.
Yeah, it's funny that way, but for all the tech we're dripping with I
get some of the biggest bang for the buck from 3x5 cards and a pad of
graph paper. I've tried many ways to replace those with software, but
nothing has yet matched the freedom to explore.
