I'm one of two Webmasters at my university and manage a team of 10 students. It can get sketchy trying to keep track of who's doing what--especially when we work shifts and I rarely see several of them. Basecamp's been a godsend for communicating reminders, encouraging greater collaboration between project groups, and helping me gather information quickly for reports.</p> I discovered Basecamp last month and I’m thoroughly impressed.

Incidentally, flickr is also working very well with first year graphics students – they’ve been leaving each other comments and submitting their work to global pools.

BusinessWeek about how these guys operate and have a total time to market of products of 3.5 months. Their focus is not really the bells and whistles, but rather to do a few things exceptionally well. Some of the collaborative products are indeed interesting.</p> There is a good article about 37signals in this week’s (or last week’s?)

I've been using it for a long time now and find that it fulfills most of my needs. The best thing about 37Signals is the fact that they don't try and be everything for everyone. They pick their niche and draw a line in the sand.</p> Basecamp, like most 37Signals products, is great! I’ve been using it for a long time now and find that it fulfills most of my needs.
