My Status Board in Action

Posted in Tech, on April 21st, 2010 by Carlos.

After getting my own Panic-inspired Status Board web app completed, I figured I needed to put it into action. As I wanted it to replace my existing whiteboard, I took that down and mounted the monitor to the wall and surrounded it with sheets of cork board. I’ve got it on an extendable arm in case I need it a little closer depending on what I’m working on. My productivity has increased immensely as a result. Ok, it hasn’t, but it’s cool!

  1. This is really awesome. You should do a full write-up on it. :)

      Thanks! That’s definitely the plan, but I may do it in several parts to break it up a bit. The board itself has been really handy and developing it was a very interesting process. I certainly want to share the experience I had with it.

    Now that’s a status board in action! Can’t wait to see it up close and check out the functionality. I’m assuming you’ll be verifying the iPad compatibility too? — for those lunch meetings of course!
