Tools for stand-ups in agile and scrum teams

Wednesday, 18 November 2009 17:46

If you are using scrum and agile within your organization, you already know about the daily stand-up meeting and the value its brings to the team. Many organisations who have not fully adopted scrum still find the stand-up meeting to be extremely useful when done properly.

Pyxis Technologies have just released a really neat iPhone/iPod Touch app - the _agilely Timer. The application allows you to efficiently facilitate daily stand ups, roundtable discussions and manage simple timeboxes. It costs $1.99 with all monies raised going to FIAN - FoodFirst Information and Action Network.
As Francois Beauregard said to me, "start standing-up for something important".

You can learn more about the _agilely Timer or even buy it direct from the App Store.
