This is what Trello organizations are designed for. An org is a collection of boards and a group of people, with permission control.

This is Fog Creek's org: https://trello.com/fogcreek

You'll just see our public boards, but we also have boards that are visible only to org members. Granting or restricting access to all of them is as simple as adding or removing a user. You can create and be a member of as many orgs as you want.

Fog Creek Software, New York, NY (on-site)

INTERNS

We're looking for interns to join the Trello, Kiln, and FogBugz dev teams here at the Creek in summer 2013. Our internship is paid ($5000/month) and includes private housing and awesome NYC experiences. You'll be working on shipping code alongside Fog Creek's fulltime developers. You will almost certainly not be required to carry buckets of diesel fuel.

We've shut down all of our servers to protect data, except some of the outermost infrastructure and gateways. That 503 is coming from HAProxy, our load balancer -- it's unable to send your traffic to any of the (powered-down) servers.

Yes, we have multiple off-site backups (cloud as well as an offsite storage DC) for all customer data. All data is still safe in NYC -- we've just brought down service to prevent problems in case of an abrupt power failure.

We are beginning to bring down all Fog Creek services (FogBugz, Kiln, Trello, etc.) as our datacenter is shutting down.

fogcreekstatus.typepad.com and @fogcreekstatus on twitter will continue to have updates.

edit: All Fog Creek services have been shut down ahead of power failure. We'll update the status blog as we know more from our DC.

If you're looking for a "clean break", Google's httplib2 [1] might be what you want. It's somewhat lower-level than Requests, but adds a bunch of advanced stuff like caching support and keep-alives. As you might guess from the name, httplib2 is more like httplib, while Requests appears to be more like urllib2.

What I never liked about Quicksilver (and I really liked Quicksilver) is that I always had to look at it. I never knew if pressing "m" would get me Mail, Mozilla, or "Mail selected file as attachment". Quicksilver was often too smart and tried to do too much.

I have Twitch bound to my Option key, so I know that I can tap Option, then hit C, and I'll get Chrome, every time. It breaks my flow much less, and it's faster, to boot -- I timed that I can get Twitch open, use it, and have it closed in 600ms.

As to a more informative website: I'm considering this a minimum viable product, enough to get on sale and get feedback (like yours, thanks!). More everything is on the way.
