Facebook Friday
We hit 9k members last week! Let’s keep it going.

- Katie says, “I’m on a committee to choose a new project management tool for our department. I’m diehard #TeamAsana and I’m going head-to-head with a dev who uses the word “Jira” as often as he says “the”.Has anyone here integrated Asana and Jira? Any feedback?

- Molly says, “At this company, our work emails aren’t set up on Google so as of right now once a month someone emails an excel spreadsheet around as the marketing calendar. That doesn’t seem efficient to me. So I need to know, what marketing calendar websites do you use?”
