Vanny! Rockin’ = Not Knockin’There’s a time in every person’s life when they must decide for themselves which way to go.Will they choose the route of the child, forever wide-eyed and innocent? The child can never truly become cynical, after all, and meets each day with a magical joy. The child can travel in a box with ease, for a box is the transport of the imagination! With paint and with an airbrush, the child can dream up a world of wizards and dragons and mostly women fighting barbarians on the moon and then paint it on the blank canvas that the box signifies. The path of the child is one of dreams and glory! Or will they choose the path of the adult? The adult needs a car to get from place to place, since time is of the essence. He needs the room to hold important papers, and a good sound system to keep track of the latest music, and maybe even a big backseat for naps and gettin’ lucky. The car is a sign that the adult can do as he pleases whenever he pleases, maybe even at full speed! There are two paths and no more. Every person must decide for themselves what… what… what is that majestic creature over there? It’s doing 75, but has a painting of a naked unicorn on the side! I… I must have it! I must! Do you hear, world? There is a better way! There is a better way! Wear this shirt: on Vanic Monday. Hey, stop groaning, it’s our I-don’t-have-to-run-day. Don’t wear this shirt: backwards. It won’t be as funny if everyone thinks you’re just talking about boxcars. This shirt tells the world: “You Probably Think This Shirt Is About You. Don’t You? Don’t You? Don’t You?” We call this color: ‘Cause Like A Princess She Was Layin’ There/Moonlight Dancin’ Off Her Hair/She Woke Up And Took Me By The Hand/We Made Love In My Chevy Van/And That’s All White With Me

Staying Motivated at Work with a Status Board [Workflow] http://lifestream.ashiant.net/items/view/7290/staying-motivated-at-work-with-a-status-board-workflow

Shared by Tom Dorr

Want... oh wait. Who would be competing and managing metrics? Panic is a software company that makes useful tools like my personal favorite, Transmit for the Mac. They've also made a beautiful project status display keeps their team on top of what they're working on and keeps everyone motivated. The board is actually an internal web page that auto-updates support email queue numbers, how far along each company project is, day over day revenue comparisons, the company calendar, and Twitter messages. Here's the effect it's had on the team:

Les, one of our support guys, said it best after a week: "That board is like magic." Our support turnaround time is faster than it's ever been. Just the simple act of "publicizing" those numbers - not in a cruel way, but a "where are we at as a group?" way - has kept the support process on-task and, I think, made it a bit more like a video game. (It helps that when all the boxes are at "zero", a virtual bottle of champagne appears on-screen, and a physical one is likely removed from the fridge.)

Brilliant! I am dying for one of these for my own personal use. Panic, will you add that to your project list? For the nitty gritty on how this board was built and what kind of display it's on, check out the full post at the Panic blog.
