That’d be great…

Atlassian loves the movie Office Space. It’s a classic; it’s before its time, and it’s just so true. We know all the jokes about staplers, and we’ve even talked about having an Atlassian flair day. We’re that serious. Last week, Office Space turned 16, and it feels as relevant today as it did in 1999. It’s crazy how little office culture has evolved since then. We still fight fax/printer/copier machines, cubicle farms cover swaths of corporate America, while information is locked away in people’s desktops or mailboxes. Sound familiar?

Introducing a new feedback loop in Confluence 5.7

Working with feedback is one of the clumsiest and most difficult parts of getting work done. The feedback is never in one place, the conversations stream through various emails, and then all too often the feedback given is based on an outdated version. You have to fight off a headache just to update a few slides in your sales deck, or change a few numbers in your spreadsheet, or even clean up a couple typos in your product requirement.
