I'm not sure about other companies, but where I work, everyone sends a weekly report to the related people detailing what you did, raise issues, recognise people (guess which is the rare occurance? :) ), vacation plans.....you get the idea.
Well, since just before I took my home trip, I haven't sent a weekly update for various reasons. It started off innocently; it was an extremely peak time and I work closely with my counterpart and he knows precisely what I'm doing and my progress, so it wasn't a priority item on my plate.
As time went by and since all my work is reported in my counter-part's weekly, time flew by without me writing an update.
As such things tend to do, it finally caught up with me. My Penang manager asked for an update this week. When I checked, it's been 12 weeks since the last update. Hahaha, I wonder if anyone would have noticed if I just dissapeared off the face of the earth? It goes to show how big the project team has grown and my place in it :D At least someone finally noticed; it showed my progress report was actually read!
Well, it was fun while it lasted. Managed to "save" 10 minutes each week for something more "productive"....

On the spin-table: "Where'd you go?" by Fort Minor. One of the current hits making the rounds. Not a bad chorus.
Silverworm corner: "Value Investing made easy" by Janet Lowe. Slowly making my way through the book. Think I need to sit down and really digest the book.
