Popular Email Client Newton Now Connects with Asana

With a reliable push notification system, and versions for both iOS and Mac, Newton had developed into a mature ecosystem. Now that they have built their app into a huge success, the creators of Newton felt that it was time for the next stage of development.

Among its plethora of power features, it has connected apps that allows users to finish their workflow without leaving their email. They can add important emails to their favorite productivity apps like Todoist, Evernote, OneNote, Pocket, Trello, Zendesk, Salesforce and Asana.

Jason Mullings is Just Rolling with It Through Apps like Asana

My name is Jason, a thirty year old in search of a better self. I’ve spent the past ten years in a sort of carousel going around and around with a loose idea in mind of what I want to be but with no plan or timetable to become what i didn’t even bother to define.

Over time, while slanging coffee at my latest dead end job I began to develop a friendship with Chris, the creator of Just Rolling with It. It immediately stood out to me how he managed to become and do whatever it was he was he wanted to do. It was Chris who literally reached out to help me get started Just Rolling with It. We apply his philosophies and systems of working through apps like Asana, the blog and biweekly meetings.

How the BYOD Trend and Platforms like Asana is Changing the Way Companies Run Meetings

In recent years, the proliferation of BYOD — or “bring your own device” — has emerged as a major trend in the work landscape. Be it laptops, smartphones or tablets, many employees are now able to collaborate from the comfort of their own devices.

With this influx of devices and variety of ways to instantly communicate from anywhere, meetings will inherently become shorter. There will be no need for meetings to last hours because most topics will be discussed with a short message in Slack, commented on in Quip or Google Docs, or assigned as a project or task in Asana or Trello — as mentioned above, collaboration and productivity platforms will eliminate unnecessary information.

Therefore, meetings should ideally become much more concise (even those covering important information) because only information that is absolutely necessary to discuss will be addressed.

Asana and Other Essential Tools Every Serious Startup Needs

Just like business planning, project management is a long and intricate process with an infinite number of little tasks, but it has a nasty habit of not coming through exactly as imagined.

As such, project management cannot thrive without an efficient division of labour, knowledge and skills, as well as the organizational method that ties all of these elements into a well-oiled machine with a common objective. Due to its overwhelming complexity, this process may just be in the greatest need of automation.

For businesses in development, project management tools like the aforementioned Trello, Asana and Basecamp are absolutely essential.
