Project management tools aren’t just for the office anymore.
Trello CEO Michael Pryor told Cheddar that people are even using his product to plan vacations and weddings.
“If you’re a tool that people can use in all these different roles in their lives, then you’re going to be a lot stickier,” he said.
Pryor said he sees that kind of usage in places such as Brazil. He says it’s the multipurpose quality of the product that allows the company to get into both emerging and developed markets.
Trello, which was acquired by Australian software company Atlassian for $425 million in January, boasts over 19 million users. Pryor wants to expand globally and says that in 2018, he’ll focus on Japan.

A Michigan judge is putting sponges in the hands of shoplifters and ordering them to wash cars in a Walmart parking lot when spring weather arrives. Genesee County Judge Jeffrey Clothier hopes the unusual form of community service discourages people from stealing from Walmart. The judge also wants to reward shoppers with free car washes. Clothier says he began ordering “Walmart wash” sentences this week for shoplifting at the store in Grand Blanc Township. He believes 75 to 100 people eventually will be ordered to wash cars this spring. Clothier says he will be washing cars alongside them when the time comes.
