I find it very difficult to keep up to date with what’s going on in Groove, I only have 3 workspaces, but that’s three additional places to go to look for updates. Last night I mentioned to Doug that there should be a way to subscribe to changes in Groove...
I recently came across a quite amazing offer from AxoSoft, that allowed me to get a 5 user version of their project management software OnTime for just $5 rather than $495, even better the $5 was donated to the Red Cross! I have been struggling to find a project/task management...
I thought I would share another of the ways that I use mind mapping, to create a project plan. Mind Manager (my tool of choice) really lends itself to this because you can export a map to a Microsoft Project and synchronise changes. Although I don’t use the sync feature...

I have just posted about how impressed I am by the OneNote team, and I especially like it when they share details of how the team uses the product themselves to push the boundaries of their processes. In this extract of a long post, Chris describes how they use the...
