		danielha on March 20, 2007 \| parent \| context \| on: GoPlan takes on 37Signals... is that a horrible id... Horrible idea? The first impression I got of GoPlan was that it had a nice design and looked pretty damn good. If I was in the market for a web-collab app, I would now be considering GoPlan instead of immediately thinking of 37Signals. That doesn't seem like a horrible them for them at all.
