• Bliki: Periodic Face-to-Face - Improvements in communications technology have led an increasing number of teams that work in a Remote-First style, a trend that was boosted by the forced isolation of Covid-19 pandemic. But a team that operates remotely still benefits from face-to-face gatherings, and should do them every few months. Remote-first teams have everyone in a separate location, communicating entirely by email, chat, video and other communication tools. It has definite benefits: people can be recruited to the team from all over the world, and we can involve people with care-giving responsibilities. Wasteful hours of frustrating commutes can be turned into productive or recuperative time. But however capable folks may be at remote working, and however nifty modern collaboration tools become, there is still nothing like being in the same place with the other members of a team.
