I also find keeping a log of work helps provide the right communication at the right time. Especially when remote I find it is easy to forget all the things I’ve worked on in a given week. It doesn’t always make sense to interrupt somebody with updates on something the moment it is done. Colocation provides so many more cues to communicate progress, ideas, etc. in the collocation context the work log is less important as a communication tool. It so happens, (shameless plug alert) I built a tool [0] that asks me what I did on a daily basis via sms, the responses are organized in my work notes folder. I use this for keeping track of long-running projects that depend on lots of other people for input. I also use it to build a monthly description of work to include with my clients’ invoices. 0. https://www.tatatap.com https://www.tatatap.com
