Too much information is worse than no information
-
Here are my arguments
- On many occasions I can't find something important (such as receipts for tax deductions) because there are too much junk to go through.
- When I don't want my boss to know something in a project, I sent him/her every file ever created that has some relation with the project.
- If something happens that wipes out the entire project-management departments in all companies on earth, you can expect to see ... some projects finish on time and within budget.
:-D
some projects finish on time and within budget. But without the project plans, RAG status reports, project charters, SSADM, UML, and storyboards how will you know they are finished or on time?

Who besides the project-management department needs to know such things? :-D

Can't agree with (3) - unless it's a project that doesn't need a project management department to begin with.
We are a big screwed up dysfunctional psychotic happy family - some more screwed up, others more happy, but everybody's psychotic joint venture definition of CP

I wasn't totally serious. But in reality, the project management department typically creates a lot of work for everybody to justify its existence.

That addresses 150% of all projects ever embarked upon right?

If you include the hobbyist projects that never get finished anyway, yes.

I know, but still. Really depends on the place you work at. And this point of view may change when you are responsible for integrating a release with components and programs of four or more people.

Without information there is not need of computers So there is not need to work, that great ;-) Ok, I'll take an holidays, I go to take a fly, at moment but without computers (without information) the airplane can't fly, I can take a ticket and I can't take a coffee in airport-bar....:confused: Maybe information is needed.

I am pretty sure that "too much information is worse than no information" does not imply "information is not needed".
