How Expekt uses Basecamp to manage one of the leading European online gaming sites
“Late this summer I heard about Basecamp and 37signals. 2 months later our whole marketing department collaborates in Basecamp. Lost mails, confusion, and who’s doing what/when are no longer a problem.”

iBackpack makes Backpack pages friendly for the iPhone and iPod Touch
“iBackpack is code (mostly CSS) that optimizes Backpack pages for use on the iPhone and iPod touch. The iBackpack code is hidden from other devices, so it won’t change the way Backpack looks or works on other devices.”

on 29 Jan 08Couldn’t you have made it all purty like Ta-Da Lists?
Serhei
on 29 Jan 08Oh, wait, it’s a CSS hack by some guy not affiliated with 37signals. The way that the product blog update made it sound is that this is the official 37signals iPhone redesign. My bad.

on 30 Jan 08Hello, I’m Justin, author of iBackpack. Thank you all for the kind comments!
I wish it was possible to do something similar for Highrise, but there’s no way to inject the code into that app, so unfortunately I’m restricted to Backpack for the time being.
If anyone has any other comments or questions please let me know!
