RedPod Meeting - 26 October 2009

Tonight was the night when the group had planned to get together to make our CIO Recommendations. I must admit this night did not seem at times like it was ever going to happen. I think this assignment has been particularly hard for all of us, not just because we were juggling work, family and study commitments but also because most of the time we were not sure if we were heading in the right direction.

We met tonight using Etherpad (this time it worked) and it was good because we could all share our ideas on the whiteboard colloboratively. There were some issues with Etherpad "dropping out" at times but at least we were able to get the project going.

I liked being able to work colloboratively with the others. Sometimes you know what you want to say but not sure how to word it and it was good to write ideas down on the whiteboard in Etherpad and then ask for suggestions on how to improve it.

I also liked the way how all our group were respectable to one and other and no-one dismissed other people's ideas. Generally speaking, we worked well together and we were able to accomplish the task (although it took several hours tonight and isn't quite finished)
