The (Social) Distance

A short update on how Basecamp is dealing with COVID-19.

Show Notes

Basecamp is a remote company, so we're less disrupted by the current pandemic than many other businesses, but we're still taking steps to keep folks safe. Jason Fried talks about canceling the company's April meetup and closing the Chicago office. Rework will be taking a few weeks off so we can get set up with recording studios at home. In the meantime, if you're working from home for the first time, we'd love to hear your stories! Please get in touch at [e-mail] (you can write an email or send us a voice memo) or leave us a voicemail at 708-628-7850.
