In today’s Digest:
This meeting could’ve been async
Hands up if you’ve ever had to attend a meeting past midnight? Yep. Remote work comes with many comforts, but competing timezones isn’t one of them.
Thanks to new asynchronous communication tools like Minutes, however, online meetings at inconvenient times are becoming a thing of the past.
“A few years ago, I was a developer in a remote team, and often had to sit in on late-night meetings at 2 or 3AM to fix a thing here or debug something there, because my teammates were in different timezones,” remembers Minutes’ maker Yan Chummar.
Yan decided there had to be a better way. “We started off with a platform to share 1:1 voice and video messages; did a round of beta testing; learned a lot. Then, we decided to focus on transitioning sync meetings to async.”
The result? A MacOS app teams can use to send voice and video messages to communicate more efficiently, asynchronously, and on their own time.
