“The most valuable tool we use is Google+ hangouts. Our daily stands up are conducted via hangout.
Rather than just hearing the other team members we can see each other.
Earlier today we had 4 developers, client manager and project manager all on a project planning meeting. It wasn't quite the same as all being in the same room, but it was a lot more personal and user friendly than a conference call.”
- Dave Hall, Developer
