That could be true. We made the call to get this sample project in at the last minute (literally a day or two before launch) so we couldn't get everything we wanted in there. We will likely include events in a future version of the sample p

Thanks. To be honest, we didn't think much about SEO here at all. We thought about customers. Well written pages that speak clearly and explain products thoroughly are automatically good for SEO. SEO gains are side effects of good writing.

We purchased the domain from the previous owner a few months ago. We wanted to use it to launch the new Basecamp since the Classic version used basecamphq.com. We wanted to keep the URLs separate so this seemed as good a time as any to make

What's appalling about it? It's not necessarily true that we won't add new features. This is day one right now. We don't know how things will pan out. It's disingenuous to say we won't do something that we might do. As stated, the majority

The new Basecamp doesn't have less features than Basecamp Classic. It has different features. The new Basecamp has dozens and dozens of features that Classic doesn't have. All together, I can make a very strong case that the new Basecamp of

basecamphq.com remains for Basecamp Classic accounts. basecamp.com is for new Basecamp accounts.

I got the idea for having a small bunch of fresh flowers on everyones office desk from the restaurant world. I always like sitting down to a table at a restaurant that has a small simple arrangement of fresh flowers. It's a great detail and

Totally agree.

We used to have it clickable, but we found it was fairly easy to click by accident so we turned it off. We may bring it back down the road once we have a little more time to focus on that interaction.

Thanks Andrew. "But what if you're given a link to say an individual ticket? Do the sheets build up from that ticket as a starting point, rather than the project page, or do they reflect the hierarchy of the site? If it's the later, does th

Curious to hear what you think once you use it. Looking at something and using it are two very different things.

When you use it you'll see why breadcrumbs are inferior. Breadcrumbs don't give you a sense of place. Breadcrumbs aren't natural. It sounds like a subtle thing, but once you use it you'll see the difference. Also, sheets have a much larger

You can have a discussion on anything. A message, a to-do, an event, a file, a text document, etc. The Discussions section aggregates everything together, no matter where it happened. It feels like the right name to us. It models the world
