Jagdeep Das11:00 AMOkay the beta version is ready! Should work for everyone on the staging site.
Matt Brewer11:05 AMThis is great. Do you mind if I share with #team-execs? They should have all the background they need after our briefing last week.
Zoe Maxwell11:06 AMI think that’s a good idea! The faster we get feedback the faster we can start testing on the site.
Matt Brewer11:07 AMI'll report back.

Zoe Maxwell9:55 AMLet me know if you want to talk strategy for our internal review today.
Arcadio Buendía10:00 AMThat’s a good call. I can set up some background and you can walk through the designs? Vice versa?
Zoe Maxwell10:02 AMI think you’re more familiar with the designs so how about the second option. Sound good?
Arcadio Buendía10:10 AMYep. Also, did you see this note? Any idea of what you’re doing for your slide?
Lisa Zhang
Hey, everyone! For our team offsite next week, I have a new idea. How about everyone on the team prepare a short presentation — just one slide — about where you see the team going in the next year.

Harry Boone9:00 AMHey, you two. Have some late breaking feedback I’d like to share with the team but it’s a little sensitive.
Zoe Maxwell9:02 AMHow can we help?
Harry Boone9:05 AMI just showed some of our pages to an outside counsel and we’d like to be a little more conservative when talking about upcoming products.
Sara Parras9:06 AMAh — okay. Should we take a second look at the roadmap section of the site?
Harry Boone9:10 AMYes, that’s the primary area of concern. Here are a few specific things to watch out for:
