Six teams asked for it, and they got it! Our new team whiteboard allows teams to leave messages for each other on the dashboard. We took the following properties of a whiteboard…
- Anybody can write on it.
- Anybody can clear messages.
- Everything is in full view of everyone.
- You can use different colour pens.
And with your help, we looked at how we can improve it digitally!
- We added a ‘valid-until’ date so notes get erased automatically on a date without you having to do it manually.
- Added permission levels so only you or someone with higher permission can only delete your own notes.
- Automatically sign and timestamp everything, so you know who wrote it and when.
- No limit of space (but we’ve limited notes to 140 characters to keep people short & sharp!).
- Added a history, so you can see everything ever written if you want. It’s not lost when cleared.
- Tell you what’s new. We highlight what’s changed since your last login.
- Allow you to colour urgent messages with a red pen!
- Decide who see’s what. Writing a message about using a vehicle? Then only display it on the dashboards of your licensed drivers.
You end up with a place to post messages to all your members!
Make sure to continue to leave feedback.
