Sorry but in my opinion you can't beat free styling with Excalidraw and a bunch of nerds leaning back in their own basements and home offices thinking deeply and being critical of ideas.
The overhead of having such meetings is next to nothing in remote compared to the office. No one has to get up to go to a meeting or book a meeting room.
Did you just have a eureka moment 5 minutes after a meeting ended? No problem! Ping the group chat and get on a call in less than 15 seconds while the idea is still hot in memory.
Oh you want to pick up where you last left off? No problem, upload last meetings Excalidraw file and start editing.
- eerikkivistik 4y agoA lot of communication between people is non-verbal. Also, the interaction with drawing software is not the natural way for people to convey their ideas, we tend to use our fingers to point, to draw etc. For some types of problems, I stand by my point, that first person interaction speeds up problem solving. But obviously there are many kinds of problems that do not benefit from this. So the way we usually structure this, is we set a date/time when X people from a team work together in the same room, if it makes sense to grind through things together. And at other times, people choose their own schedules / workplaces.
