For most of us, work is a series of projects.

We’re always drawing up plans (some more formal than others) and trying to carry them out, usually as part of a team.

So if project management is so core to our professional lives, why is it so difficult to find great project management tools?

Historically, project management separated the “management” from the real work.  Picture a Project Manager walking around with a clipboard, collecting status reports, and fiddling with Ganntt charts.  Great for putting a man on the moon, but not appropriate for all the informal, fast-moving projects that make up the bulk of our working days.  I’m sure most of you have used or seen Microsoft Project at some point, and I’m just as sure that 99.9% of you haven’t used Microsoft Project anytime in the past year.
