We stopped using Basecamp recently, and one thing I really miss is the weekly question, asking folks what they want to work on. I found this useful even for my own planning. Something about it was better than a simple note file or to-do list.
@manton — We don't have that question, but we did have "What did you work on today?"
We ended up moving it to a Slack channel, and I much prefer it.
@manton I used to use it in a past job too, and I very much appreciated the automatic questions. Honestly, I might use it for my own small business if they still had their personal/free plans. What made you switch, and what’d you switch to?
@manton However you do it, I’d agree it’s a useful practice. A long time ago I started - as part of my own weird GTD hybrid methodology - asking myself on th Sunday evening before the new week, “what are the top 3 things I’d like to try to do/solve/move forward this week?”
@manton I could never really get into Basecamp. I do need another project management too. Asana doesn’t work for me either.
@manton I would be very interested in how you actually used it. I’m currently working on modernizing OpenGroupware, which might be a free replacement.
