I would be using Basecamp too if not for the $20 a month fee. Can someone at Trello write a similar post on how Trello can be used at home?

This is basically an ad for Basecamp Personal, which is $25 once. Maybe that would be appropriate for your use case?

Elusive critter.

http://basecamp.com/pricing: "Pricing Starts at $1/day", so, no.

Search, hit: https://basecamp.com/personal "... $25 per project. Pay once, no recurring fees."

But: "Basecamp Personal is offered exclusively to existing Basecamp users (or anyone with a 37signals ID). You don't have to be the owner of a Basecamp account - you only have to be a user on a Basecamp account. We plan to open Basecamp Personal up to the wider public in a few months."

We've been using Asana for our personal tasks. Free for < 15 people, and most of the same functionality.

Trello has one big failing. It doesn't support multiple accounts. You can't have separate personal and work accounts without repeatedly logging out and back in again. Mobile is even worse since logging out and in is way more painful (assuming a decent password).

I've responded to Trello employees comments a few times when they mention using it for both work and personal, and it appears they just use their personal accounts for work stuff.

My wife and I use a combination of google calendar and trello.

Before I saw the domain, I wondered how Basecamp could possibly be used to help a southeast Asian dynasty more efficiently oppress an entire nation and manipulate international opinion... then I started thinking about it, and man, there sure are a lot of varied uses for organizational tools.

The DPRK is east asian, like Japan. Southeast asia is Indonesia, Thailand etc.

Also Kim is basically Korean "Smith."

Bullshit.

Smith is way less common of a family name in English than Kim is in Korean.
