Discussing Decisions! Card Tables and To-Dos

A raw, unedited conversation between two 37signals' two co-founders, Jason Fried and David Heinemeier Hansson, about a recent decision they made regarding Card Tables (a new Kanban feature in Basecamp 4) and To-dos. In this video discuss the decision not to allow customers to convert To-do lists or To-do items into Card Tables or Cards.

Discussing Decisions! A Basecamp pricing experiment

A raw, unedited conversation between two 37signals' two co-founders, Jason Fried and David Heinemeier Hansson, about a recent decision they made on trying a new pricing model for Basecamp 4. They discuss the decision to try a new pricing model, some of the reasons behind the decision, the tradeoffs inherent in making a decision like this, how it only applies to new customers rather than existing customers, the value of timeboxing experiments, and a variety of other topics.

The Basecamp Lineup: A bird's eye view

Brand new in Basecamp 4 is The Lineup — a great way to get a bird's eye view of all the projects that are currently in play. Know who's working on what, how much time has passed, and how much time is left. You'll also get to see projects that haven't started yet, and stuff that's recently finished. It's an especially wonderful, visual view for managers who need to stay on top of stuff without staying on top of people.
