Do It Yourself (DIY) accelerated learning!!!!

I believe one of the best ways to learn Web project management, or to increase your knowledge, is to create an entire site yourself. Do everything from A to Z :the idea, the strategy, the costing, the design, the programming, the testing, and the updating. It doesn’t have to be a complicated site at all; it could revolve around a hobby or interest of yours. You will find you learn an awful lot about the challenges your web team members face, learn new terminology, see why some things take longer than others, learn the joys of cross-browser compatibility at first hand, and so on. All of this will make you better at communicating with your team and client, better at planning, and better at empathizing with your team members regarding the problems they face.

yup..i agree..
when you know how to do everything, and experience it yourself, you'll know what does the problems that might occur in the developing process.
