It’s been a busy week for remote working fans and first-timers with all of the safety measures being put in place for COVID-19. Here are some of the better links I’ve found recently:

• Matt Mullenweg: Coronavirus and the Remote Work Experiment No One Asked For: "This is not how I envisioned the distributed work revolution taking hold."
• Austin Kleon: A working from home manual in disguise:  "Here are 10 tips taken straight from the book, along with excerpts and quotes"
• The Staying Home Club (that’s stayinghome.club, nice): A list of all the companies working from home
• Ian Sanders: How to Work at home
• Gitlab’s remote working guide
• Protocol Source Code’s remote tips from Amir Salihefendic

More to come, I’m sure!

Update March 13, 2020: 

Coronavirus and working from home – a primer to get your team started
"If your work happens in front of a computer, it can happen remotely. Yes, face-to-face interaction is the best way to transmit complex ideas, details of the tasks, hilarious jokes, and deadly viruses."

Kevin Roose: Sorry, but Working From Home Is Overrated
I think he’s missing the point here. Working from home shouldn’t (and doesn’t) mean working in isolation. Communication, breaks, and personal health should be focused on whether working in an office or remote!
