iWork for iCloud - first impression

Today have got a hold of iWork for iCloud beta.

I use MS SkyDrive and Docs for Facebook for online documents editing at the moment. So I decided to give iWorks for iCloud a quick try.

Started with Numbers:

Browser is not fully supported:

Checked, need Chrome 27 for full support I guess:

However it still works:

Tried to "Share", but received a message that iCloud Mail isn't set up:

Scrum - Team Culture and Wall Manifesto

In the Scrum framework one of the key components is the wall and daily stand-up. In some organisations I worked with the whole concept of the wall is not accepted by many developers, because of the stand-up necessity and "time waste".

So the owners corporation stopped all works in the middle and went off for a month to "make decision". The decision was mad
