Full project archiving

Although the prototype included a form of archiving it really needed to be looked at. The process now gives the project member the control to, at any point, grab an archive of the project. This includes all designs, project files and the comment feed (as a .csv file). The resultant download is a neatly packed ZIP with simply labeled folders and of course the feed spreadsheet.

The benefits to providing archiving like this are that you can take a record of the project to a face to face meeting where you are unlikely to have internet access or archive a project prior to deletion for your records (if it’s finished). I’m sure there are more uses out there – but these seemed to be the main ones.

Archive away!

Allworkedup used in 24 hour start up experiment

The 24 hour start-up project consisted of conceiving, designing, building and promoting a new business in 24 hours! The combined teams from White October, Nonsense and Hutchhouse pulled of a real feat with the launch of DrHue.com just 24 hours after the experiment started. Allworkedup was widely used during the design and management of the process providing a central point for design comment and feedback, as well as a hub for file handovers.

Well done to the 24 hour start-up team (twitter: @24hourstartup) – we’ll be keeping an eye on those bids. You can keep up to date on the 24 hour start-up blog:
