Miro (miro.com) or a similar virtual whiteboard.
Gather (gather.town) looks very promising as a tool for physicalized interactions, although I haven’t had a chance to use it for real yet.
Meeting formats that aren’t just people taking turns talking, but instead involve breaking up into small groups (Gather or breakout rooms) and collaboratively manipulating shared representations (Miro, Google Docs, Figma, Tuple).
- ammar_x 5y agoI've used Miro before for mind maps but after your suggestion, I think it's great as a whiteboard, thanks. Gather looks fun but I'm afraid it will make you more prone to interruptions and therefore have less focus time. For me, I think it would be stressful to be in a situation like that. > collaboratively manipulating shared representations Thanks, I would think this is key to enhance meeting quality.
- jdlshore 5y agoYou don’t have to be logged into Gather all the time, just for the time when you’re in the meeting. It’s effectively a better way of breaking into small groups that’s more fluid and natural than breakout rooms.
- muzani 5y agoWe use Gather, but it messes with hotkeys on my PC and slows down build times, so it's not practical unless you have a second computer for it.
- YXNjaGVyZWdlbgo 5y agoMiro gets abused and is designed to easily get abused on so many levels and most of the time is the pinnacle of performative work with PMs trying to make the board look good instead of providing information. I really hate it, it covers up so many misstakes and misinformation.
