Brought a book called UML DeMYSTiFied [ISBN 0-07-226182-x] which i’m hoping will formalize the way i plan an application. Its says: ‘…show you how to visually plan, develop, and analyze software projects’.

In the past i would simply put ideas [brainstorm] on to paper, put a structure of the classes together with Visio and there it is. Not to bad i reckon, but i think getting in depth with use cases, activity diagrams, interaction diagrams and many other will take my coding to the next level, which is nice.

Im still using Visio for planning, but at least i know what im saying now. I am looking for another option as some of these editors pump out AS files from your planning, including your method,comments etc.
