Mobti.me as a Remote Timer
Remote workshops come with their own set of challenges. An often overlooked one is how to get everyone back at a certain time. If you focus on the exercise you easily miss the agreed time to come back. That is even before we start with time zones and specialities like half-hour deviations from standard time (as they occur in parts of Australia).
A nice solution to this problem is mobti.me. This free service is a remote timer for mob (or ensemble) programming. Without any modification we can reuse this service for anything that needs a timer.
