There is a blog service out there called blog carnivals. It provides a mechanism to aggregate blog posts on a particular topic and then post a link of article summaries and links. Over at Better Projects I have run the first Carnival of Business Analysts on the topic of defining the role - and am now looking for contributions for the second edition.
The Carnival of Business Analysts #2 is calling for submissions on the general theme of Business Analysts and Quality.
If you have written or read a blog post or web article on the topic please let me know about it via the submission form. The carnival will be published in the first few days of September at Better Projects.
Cheers
Craig

The next edition of the Carnival of Business Analysts is themed around Requirements Planning. It’s a challenging topic because it’s a relatively new for most people including many analysts. I look forward to reading people’s submissions (and of course supplementing them with my own search.) If you have some knowledge you want to share submit your blog post, article or white paper today.
You can read a primer on this topic at Better Projects.
The 3rd edition of the Carnival of Business Analysts has been published on the theme of Requirements Planning.
Come and take a look at 17 articles linked to the planning phase of requirements management. If you are new to the role and facing your first project as an analyst or if you are an experienced hand looking for new ideas to try out the carnival is sure to satisfy you.
