Joel‘s always been on about the advantages of having private offices for developers. This is one advantage of us all having our own home offices is that we certainly have private offices. The piece we have to work harder at is the face to face meetings.

Having spent many previous lives in various forms of ‘open’ offices, I’m completely on Joel’s side of the fence on this one. The worst of which was an office where I sat near a meeting room. The result being I could hear every damn meeting held there and had to buy large headphones in order to have any chance at being productive.
