SugarSync is an online tool that can sync folders over multiple
computers. It's been hailed by our good friend Jakob Neilson as one of
the most usable app interfaces of 2008.
I'm thinking that we can use this to sync our project files aka
LW_Projects folder.
Me thinks it would work better than MS Groove because of those of us
who own Macs.
I'll do some research and see what's up.

Was out in the driveway and did the logo. I realized that I broke the
brand guideline… So I slapped myself on the wrist.

Got this off of twitter from a Kevin Rose Tweet

This is a great read, from a guy at 37Signals discussing projects at the Web 2.0 conference, link at bottom, here’s a preview:
Going to range from collaboration to design, hiring, lots of things without diving into too much detail. 20-25 minutes of talking and then Q&A.
1. Momentum – Has its hands in just about everything and is incredibly important. Esp for morale. Most typical projects are really exciting at the beginning and then people tend to lose interest and fade out. Long projects eat at you and you’re not even looking to do good stuff you just want to finish things and they don’t turn out well. Create a situation where projects are short and there’s excitement and it’s a short 2 week project and it leaves people in excited mode. Break big projects into as many small projects. 2 week rule.
