Discord and the Virtual Office with Benjamin Hoyt

Want to know how Ben used Discord to create a humming virtual office? Thanks to the COVID pandemic, many teams have been forced to develop a virtual office. For the first time in the 20 years that he's been managing software development projects, this is the first time where Ben has tried to manage a team without any centralized office, even for the core team members.

This is the story of how we turned a free video game chat platform into a humming virtual office.
