On the request of many users we changed the default policy for task reminders. Up to now, you didn’t receive task reminders for due tasks by by default. Now we changed this. The default behavior is now that you automatically receive task reminders for due tasks 3 days in advance. You can change the notification behavior in AgreeDo’s settings.
If you have any further questions please don’t hesitate to contact us.
We fixed an issue with the latest chrome browser. Some of you noticed dialos popping up and down continuously. As soon as we fixed the issue, google updated their library which also fixed it…:-)
We are currently investigating a problem with the feature online meetings on iOS 6 devices. Until we have a fix please uncheck the feature ‘Online Meetings’ on https://www.agreedo.com/MeetingApp.html#settings;meeting.

Here′s a summary of the most important comments from the ongoing discussion on LinkedIn about “What are the 5 most important rules for writing perfect meeting minutes?”.
Know your meeting type!
The right type of meeting minutes depend on the type of your meeting. Whether it’s the summary of a board meeting or a brain storming, makes a huge difference in what to write down!
Know your audience!
Be sure for whom you write you meeting minutes. Know their culture and their expectations. Whether they are used to a more narrative style or a more terse style (just facts). If you ask me, I am more on the short and to the point style side 
Keep it short !
If you rewrite the current status too often the meeting minutes get useless. So try to only write those points down which are nearing their deadline and are currently most important. leave out all the others or group them together under another topic.
Keep the focus!
When meetings lose their focus it’s likely that their minutes also have no focus. So try to remember the purpose and the targets of the meeting. Take this as a starting point for deciding what items (i.e. decisions, tasks, important info) should be part of your minutes.
Know your people!
An important part of meeting minutes are tasks, due dates and their assignees. You need to be carefull of whom to send a reminder (in the meeting minutes). People who are well organized don’t need reminders. Therefore sending them a reminder could run you in problems! On the other hand you will have attendees and tasks assignees who regularly need reminders on their tasks. Remind them, and make sure they know they are constantly tracked.
There are lots of other good hints for perfect meeting minutes in the above mentioned discussion on linked in. So drop in and read of all it or even add your comments!
| Integration with Outlook is easy to do. Just invite all attendees via AgreeDo. The invitation e-mail automatically contains the weblink to the AgreeDo agenda. |
If you’d like to schedule a meeting in Outlook, just copy & paste the weblink to your AgreeDo agenda from your browser to the outlook invitation text!
