Goal: communicate better to work better
I started Plum Canary for a fairly ordinary reason: I couldn't find any software that would help me with what I was doing. I wanted a product that helped me keep a team of people on track executing work that needs done. So I built Chirp to do this.
However, task status, etc., isn't all there is to communications. The sharing of ideas and information is just as important.
Which is the reason for me to start a blog. While the Internet (or you) may not need yet-another-blog, I hope that I can:
- Raise issues that you consider thought provoking and important.
- Help you know how I, and therefore, Plum Canary thinks about how people can do more, better, faster.
I've been building software, and IP networking equipment for over 20 years. I've been an industry analyst, an entrepreneuer / pioneer, and front-line manager. This gives me what I hope is an interesting perspective.
In the end, the thoughts, and this blog, can will give you some idea about the direction Chirp's product development will take over time, and how it will (hopefully) be useful to you.
