It's no secret: we like Agile Software Development here at ProjectLocker.
We're not dogmatic about any one particular methodology over another. As a company, we've always focused on supporting the most efficient ways software developers can save time, save money, and build better software. But if you look at the Agile Manifesto, I think you'll see some things that we might agree with:
"Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
Working software over comprehensive documentation
Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
Responding to change over following a plan"
With that in mind, especially given that supporting Agile teams is the raison d'être for ProjectLocker Lite as well as our long-standing partnership with the Agile & Scrum experts at 3Back, we felt it was time to make it official:
ProjectLocker is now a corporate member of the Agile Alliance.
For all of our current users who are Agile practicioners: I'd encourage you to take a moment and see what resources the alliance can offer to enhance your current project.
And if you're an Agile practicioner or Alliance member who's not using ProjectLocker yet, I think you'll like what you see.

We knew there was room in the marketplace for a hosted tools vendor who treated small teams with just as much care and consideration as a big enterprise IT department. But we were all a bit taken aback by the tremendous response we've received for
ProjectLocker Lite. For those of you asking to take part in an official ProjectLocker affiliate program, you may yet get your wish later this summer. In the meantime, we thought we'd try something simple to whet your appetites, so we're having a Referral Raffle.
You can now get entries into our drawing for a brand new
iPhone from Apple simply by telling your friends and fellow developers about ProjectLocker. When your friends sign up from our
website, make sure they enter your email address into the "Referral Source" field at the bottom of the page during checkout. Whoever has the most referrals as of midnight EST August 31, 2008 will be awarded an
iPhone, courtesy of ProjectLocker. So, if you love our service, go spread the word -- you may just strike mobile gold.
