EP34 – Freedom of Remote WordPress Work with Jon Brown – WPblab

This week on WPblab, Bridget Willard & Jason Tucker speak with Jon Brown about his life as a nomad, being the remote boss and working with remote workers. We also get into travel, dealing with slow wifi, having redundant internet access when abroad and his collection of cellular phone sim cards.

Later in the show, we are joined by Russell Aaron and Made Better Studio to ask some questions live on the air.

In:

Weekly Watercooler Discussions about WordPress and it’s community.

    Developing locally is the key. I built a site on a ship once.

    Not task management per se, but still helpful

    Aww thanks @RobertFGillmer – means so much to me (and the rest of the #wcphx gang) to hear rave reviews still about #wcphx2014 even with the lull of not having a 2015 event! I am also personally super duper excited to see WordCamp come back to #Phx in 2016… I didn’t want to be the lead org who killed WordCamp for Phx hehehe

    I’m on Basecamp. It’s kind of annoying.

    It’s good for a 10000 foot view of bizdev.

    Sifter is great for communicating with clients in a bug-fix capacity.

    If you’re a Google Chrome user… and have tasks flying in from Asana, Trello, GMail etc… you may want to check out https://tacoapp.com It’s really helpful for me to keep track of all the cats…

    That’s why Asana project status and inbox is way better than #slack to keep track of “where the projects” are actually at

  32. Jason Tucker Avatar

    @enqueue_russ of course you do

  33. Emanuel Costa Avatar

    This one seem interesting but I have not tested in a large project. https://getplan.co
