The Podcast

Like every year, we’re taking this moment to reflect on 2019, review our successes and failures, set some goals (not resolutions!) for 2020, and put in motion a process to ensure it’s going to be a great year.

Exploring the idea of abolishing (or enhancing) the hierarchical structure of companies in favor of dispersing responsibilities broadly into a mesh — not based on rank, but particular skill, specialization, experience.

Getting your hands dirty to create physical objects, tinker, work with plastic, metal, and wood is fun! A more soothing hobby than doing stuff at the computer, and a better way to spend an evening than Netflix.

We discuss home renovations, CNC milling, concrete casting, and industrial robots.

We got, no, we _made_ some cool new gadgets for the Fall 2019 Nozbe Reunion: Laser-cut phone stands, zero waste produce bags and hemp dish cleaner, and smog sensors.

To create Nozbe Teams, we had to grow from being a product company to being a technology company. In this episode, we’re telling the story of what technological infrastructure we’ve chosen and created for this project (and why).

In 2016, we decided to make "Nozbe for Teams". Then, we changed its name to just Nozbe 4.

Ultimately, we've decided to call the new product Nozbe Teams and become, at least for a while, a two-product company.

In this episode, we're winding the history back to the beginnings of this project and re-telling the story of why and how this came to be.

This wasn't supposed to be this week's show. We meant to talk about Nozbe Teams… but instead, we go on a 40 minute long crusade against… jeans and MacBooks.

Catching up after a 3-month summer break from The Podcast. Vacations, conferences, open source, webmastering, Nozbe Teams, Portland, and driving licenses.

The Podcast is on a summer break.

Meanwhile, Michael started playing with code again and have just launched three new website projects.

And we briefly discuss and update on Digital Minimalism and Michael's break from social media.
