Cool. I hadn't really considered going this route--was always trying to use a combination of: # of collaborators, # of projects, # users per organization, etc and none of them really felt right. Will give the increased admin features some

Thanks! I wanted to avoid optimizing. When I started working on it (before Trello came out) I wanted something really general purpose with no forced workflow, etc. I could customize it but that's not what I really wanted to build so I've

I developed a similar product over the last few years ( http://www.thetaboard.com ) and have been waiting to see how the FogCreek guys were going to monetize Trello. I had resigned to leaving my product as free in the face of such a free, s

There seem to be a couple of these services popping up. This one ( http://www.findexp.com/ ) services the Braves games at Turner Field in Atlanta. I can't really see more than one of these businesses taking off and I would think Ticketmaste

Looks a lot like my app: http://www.thetaboard.com But with some more bells and whistles and a predefined PM workflow. (In fairness, we both look like Pivotal and Trello to a lesser degree so it doesn't bother me) Given the noticeable s

Launched just under a year ago. The comments issue was a tough decision. In the end, I wanted to keep everything on the card itself and do my best to reduce or eliminate/reduce modal windows and drop down menus (I have some but they are few

Clone? No. Similar? Sure. When Trello came out I had been working on ThetaBoard for a while. Both products draw heavily from some Kanban tools that have been around for years. If Trello had been out earlier I might not have started my proje

I used this library to build the product tour for my app ( http://www.thetaboard.com ). Was really easy to customize the color scheme and behavior--I think it took 2 hours to integrate it. Adding a product tour really improved my "demo" to

I think there is little risk of Trello being discontinued/FogCreek going out of business. They do a lot of hiring and have had a pretty vocal customer segment pleading for them to charge for it. I don't really understand why they haven't th

They were also the first (or one of the first) to (nearly) eliminate the approval process. You could go from registration form to accepting payments in hours rather than the old process of getting merchant service account and then payment g

Thanks! Glad you like it. Yeah, I've got some features I would like to add but am holding back b/c they would result in increased operating costs. I'll need to make a decision in the next 6 months or so.

I write the odd blog post but have not done any focused marketing. I've gotten a few write ups here and there that provide a trickle of traffic that converts into signups pretty well. My goal with ThetaBoard is to keep it very simple and fl

Still hacking away on http://www.thetaboard.com on nights and weekends. Getting a good flow of signups. Trying to decide whether to charge for it (and if so, how to market it) or possibly just leaving it free (it isn't costing much to run

Hey Matt. Pretty cool. * Would be nice to be able to upload files (or drag and drop them onto the board). * Would be nice to be able to affect the z-index (bring stuff to front/push to back). * The appeal is the free-form drag anywhere asp

It all sounds rediculous. My company often sends out emails announcing a new Twitter account/FB/LinkedIn page and asks if we'll Like/Follow it. Not such an unreasonable request really (as long as it is a request). I simply have two accounts

I don't know if SEO will be a priority for your company--you might be relying on a different source of traffic. If you need SEO, you are hurting yourself by not having "music" in your domain name. Using the "v" might be cool but it isn't go
