This post introduces you to WeUseThat.com. I found WeUseThat.com via the Beeminder.com blog (Thanks Bethany and Dan!).
Simply put, WeUseThat.com is a bunch of interviews with startups focusing on how they get things done. I've started reading these interviews and it is fascinating to read about the tools that these successful startups use, why they select them, and what they want but can't find (yet).
I believe that projects are everywhere, ubiquitous, and that it is in the thousands of projects I see everyday that I can have the greatest impact. I work to be a constant source of positive reinforcement and encouragement to everyone working on projects, posting six days a week to share good news, good thoughts, and great projects with my project peers.

AboutProjectManagement's Anki Project - Part 3: Shared Decks
Continuing to explore the Anki Flashcard system, today's post introduces shared card decks.
Anki is a great tool to start with. Active recall testing and spaced repetition make Anki more efficient than traditional study methods. Anki's repository of shared decks makes Anki that much more valuable by allowing me to browse decks that others have created and download those that I wish to study.
To find shared decks (including our AboutProjectManagement.com decks - subject of a later post) select download in Anki and search by the desired deck's name/subject.

As you can see, I just uploaded AboutProjectManagement.com's deck - only 14 facts so far. More about this in part 4 of our continuing series.

Teaser: I'm thinking of doing a series of posts covering my favorite tools for Project Managers, Anki will certainly be one of those tools.
