We’ve been thinking a lot about Page Description Diagrams lately, and how they might fit into a workflow which frequently interacts with clients. Simply put, we’re fascinated with website planning, and always interested in ways to make Jumpchart better. Keep Reading

It’s Launch Day for Paprika!
We’ve sent it through testing, testing, and more testing. It’s ready- really ready- right here!
So what’s it all about?
Well, we thought the world needed a PM app that was just that- a box of essentials only, to help you keep your ducks in a row. What’s the point of your task manager- to organize your stuff, right? When you have to sift through settings, drop-downs, permissions and who only knows what else to organize your todos… it can quickly defeat the purpose.
Paprika is the love child of Simplicity and Efficiency. Keep Reading
Very soon, we’ll be launching our new app, Paprika. We’ve had the idea for Paprika floating around in our heads for a while. We even told you about it along the way in our five-part series:
In the spirit of the above mentioned series, we thought we’d add one more piece about the single moment we realized we needed Paprika. Keep Reading
…You’re in a meeting with yourself.
Gina Trapani wrote this article for Fast Company, and we not only agree with what she’s saying, but have been practicing what she’s preaching: integrating defensive scheduling into our own workflow.
Multi-tasking is difficult enough, and when you’re juggling meetings, sporadic conversations, e-mails and all sorts of other emergencies at the same time, it’s nearly impossible to think about your own work. You’re left thinking: “I’ll code that site later,” or “I’ll do browser testing for that app in a little bit.” Worst of all, these aren’t exactly things that can (or should) be stopped halfway through, to be finished later.

I can imagine a time when the screen and input devices go away, and we just speak or gesture at computers to get results, but I think that’s a long ways off. Keep Reading

I enjoy it personally. It’s like waving a magic wand.
I’m spoiled by my programming co-workers. Sometimes I happen to stumble upon a bug, need an e-mail setting fixed on a server I don’t have access to, or have a question about the CMS we built from scratch; I can’t think of a single time when I’ve had to ask twice because I didn’t get an answer nearly immediately.
But throw clients into the mix, and you have an entirely different ballgame.
