When I was first introduced to Trello, virtual Tupperware came to mind, and boy, was I turned off. Confining my ideas to tidy little boxes, each an identical dimension, so that they could be shuffled about like mundane snacks on a platter, would employ my energies towards a stifling romance with hyper vigilance rather than the muck and mud of developing an idea. In short, Trello did not fit my idea of the creative process.
However, when I saw the example provided by Professor Irvine, I realized that this tool is more akin to the concept of the TARDIS: smaller on the outside. I can fill these mean little boxes with stuff that would put Mary Poppins to shame. Plus, I can give them a nifty background.
Bet you can’t do that, Tupperware.
