Beyond Bullet Points? High Resolution Image Sources
In working at trying to convert some of my presentations to be more in-line with Cliff Atkinson’s Beyond Bullets book I needed to find inexpensive sources of high resolution images. I found that stock photography sites are generally pretty expensive (like $150 per picture!!!). After some research I was able to find several sites that offer really great quality images for free!
Here they are…
stock.xchng
120,607 Images! All free. You have to register but it is free to get an account.
morgueFile (yes…that is the name of the site)
These guys even have a blog with RSS feeds for recently added images.
FreeFoto.com
64,628 Images
stockvault.net
Only about 1800 images but pretty cool stuff
Enjoy!

Declaration of Interdependence
The Agile Project Management Group have come together and created the Declaration of Interdependence.
Excellent ideas put in a clear concise format. These six core values are at the very heart of delivering quality projects while simultaneously improving your ability to do so. They are doing excellent work over there…
Six core values emerged from our collaboration. Together, they form what we have named, "The Declaration of Interdependence" for Agile-Adaptive Management (the name Agile-Adaptive is not official at this point):
- We increase return on investment by making continuous flow of value our focus.
- We deliver reliable results by engaging customers in frequent interactions and shared ownership.
- We manage uncertainty through iterations, anticipation and adaptation.
- We unleash creativity and innovation by recognizing that individuals are the ultimate source of value, and creating an environment where they can make a difference.
- We boost performance through group accountability for results and shared responsibility for team effectiveness.
- We improve effectiveness and reliability through situationally specific strategies, processes and practices.
