Are you using UML yet?

Saturday, August 28th, 2010

If you are a software designer and you are not using UML,  you are short changing yourself.

Here are the UML resources.

1.  A UML tool – UMLet from http://umlet.com/ .  This is the most user friendly UML tool I have come across. Please make sure to donate a few bucks.

2. Couple of UML Books – UML Distilled: A Brief Guide to the Standard Object Modeling Language (3rd Edition) and The Rational Unified Process: An Introduction (3rd Edition)

And also, if you love books, read this one.
