Crucible 2 Beta Insight (part 3) – Jira Integration
In the first two parts of my little blog series on the Crucible 2 beta, I covered iterative reviews and the new usability improvements. One of the most requested features from existing customers was better Jira integration and I’m excited to let you know that we have improved this greatly.
You Can Do That! Part 1 of 3
Although this may not seem obvious at first, there are some important parallels between Apple’s iPhone and Confluence 3.0. “How can this be?!?” you might ask. After all, the iPhone is a piece of hardware developed by one of the world’s oldest and most admired technology companies. Confluence, on the other hand, is this intangible […]

Getting Started With Agile – Daily Standup Meetings
h3. Becoming agile. The first baby-step There are many ways to become agile. And many ways to fail horribly while trying! Purists say that you are not really agile until you do _everything_ in a truly agile fashion. That might be true. But beware – don’t try to start everything _at the same time_. That’s […]

Agile Context Switching with "The Disturbed"
Still, distractions are inevitable, and problems that need a developer to help solve them will come up every day. A production system may run into trouble, another developer may need help with a hairy problem, a member of another team may want to know how your product solves a particular problem, and so on. At Atlassian, we try to manage these interruptions in two ways.
Fisheye 2 Beta Insight (part 2) – Personalisation
Last time, I talked about how Fisheye 2 focuses on People and Teams by raising the importance of developers and their activities within your development environment. Let’s not forget that the most important person on your team is YOU! That’s why Fisheye 2 offers many ways for you to control this seemingly endless amount of data in order to provide you with meaningful information at all times.

Confluence Macros – It’s Evolution Baby!
One of most powerful things about Confluence is the rich ecosystem plugins that users have at their disposal. Whether it be embedding a PowerPoint presentation on a page, creating a live dashboard with real-time metrics, or showing off your favourite Flickr slideshow , Confluence can handle all that! Confluence really is more than a wiki. But, in order to create all this cool content, you must first know the syntax for the macros required. With hundreds of plugins, each with their own set of macros, this proves to be quite difficult! Let’s not forget how it can be difficult for Confluence admins to manage all of the additional plugins. Well, we’ve recognised that and we’ve done something about it. Let Boots and I take you on a journey of the evolution of Confluence Macros.
