I keep starting off using it but at times i find it a waste of time. Not the concept more due to the fact that specifications suddenly change and you have to start over and over.. where as at times if quickly code the work already and they go and change it..i can do the whole "gee mate...i mean, theres code already written and stuff ya know... changing..i dunno, it'll cost ya"..
UML = Architect / Blueprint Mode. If you are building a house without some blueprint/plans to work from, well yeah you can get it up but it won't be a masterpiece and probably fail Councile Regulations hehee. If you get it planned out via blueprints, well you stand a better chance of getting it spot on the first time (pipe dream in some agencies - that i can appreciate). At the same time, this is where people suddenly want changes "can you add a new bathroom over here..but ..without plumbing involved, thats phase02.." so you scribble away thinking "freakin clowns". On a flipside, I still don't understand UML fully, i know enough to cover my ass and sound like i'm intellgent enough to use it, but deep down..i know i'm a total newbie in how to use it effectively. Persistance though as been a key ingredient in adopting UML.
