Tracker Ecosystem: Meta collaboration tools

February 22, 2012 Ronan Dunlop

Is it a sign of the times that the cloud-based tools that allow us to work together better now need a tool of their own to work together better? A meta betta togetha tool in other words.

Sounds ironic, but it’s a fact that we struggle to manage the multiple communication streams we’re connected to – we’re running out of sandbags to contain the overflow.

For those of you that have Pivotal Tracker as one of your streams, we have many friends in the community that are seeking to help folks stay on top of and act upon all that valuable info in these multiple streams. One pond that all your streams feed into if you will. Not wishing to play favorites, here are some of our more recent partners in alphabetical order.
