One and a half years ago, I started @uxremotely to learn more about the possibilities and limitations of designing with distributed teams. So far I have compiled more than 130 articles of designers and design teams working remotely. As tweets are ephemeral, I will post the five most interesting articles I found on each subject here.
This first list includes case studies from companies like Google, InVision and 18F (a digital services agency within the United States Government). Enjoy!
