I normally don't go into site promotion but rather concept info. But I think this is a web page worth looking at in technical writing. It is a dynamic periodic table. I really appreciate the work that went into this page. The site, ptable, provides quite a bit of interactive viewing and information for the reader. Click on just about anything and you will be given details and new views. This site is why I like the web as a learning, training, and dissemination of information tool.

Preventing Scope Creep on Documentation Projects
Scope creep in project management refers to uncontrolled changes or
continuous growth in a project’s scope. It is generally considered
harmful. - Wikipedia Successful delivery of any documentation project depends on monitoring
and controlling the scope of the project. It is critical to clearly
define project deliverables, timelines, and budget estimates at the
start of a project. Lu Kondor will describe how to recognize and address scope creep on
documentation projects. She will discuss how to prevent your projects
from going over budget and over time so that you can deliver successful,
quality documentation for clients and employers.
