Tools - Trello.com

While studying Scrum, reading about Kanban, and trying to automate project board for my (soon to be) distributed team, I came across Trello.

Wow!

Trello.com is free, intuitive, and works great for our product backlog, release backlog, sprint backlog, Sprint WIP, and Sprint DONE lists.  In a short few weeks, Trello has become one of my go to tools for both PM and Scrummaster roles.

Here is a demonstration video for you to enjoy (Double click to see in YouTube):

Experiment - My Personal Productivity System

I could be more productive with a better method of organizing my actions.  With that in mind, I checked out the audiobook verision of David Allen's book "Getting Things Done" and listened on my commutes.

The book describes a reasanable approach to handling the ever-increasing amount of "stuff" that is crossing my desk, email, voicemail, etc.  I've decided to give this a try.  Today's post describes the first steps of my journey to becomming a more productive PM and person.
