Hi folks,

Confession time: I’m a bit of a software nut. Whenever a shiny new app lands, I can’t help but poke around under the hood. The upside? I stumble across a lot of great tools—especially for project management and construction (site management) workflows. The downside? My browsing history looks like a developer conference. I'm probably the stupidest nerd around (given i'm from and work in construction).

Rather than letting all that research gather digital dust, I’m giving our forum a makeover. The Constructor Forum is becoming SOTW—Software Of The Week.

What’s changing?

  • New focus: Each week I’ll share a standout piece of software that helps with task tracking, resource planning, site reporting, or anything that makes construction life easier.
  • Open discussion: Dive into the thread, share your experiences, ask questions, or suggest alternatives. The idea is to figure out real-world use cases together.
  • Less overlap: We already cover construction know-how on the blog, so the forum can zero in on tech that boosts productivity in the construction environment.
  • For homeowners and construction pros: every featured tool is useful to both groups.

Think of SOTW as my therapy: turning a “maybe-I-have-a-problem” habit into something useful for everyone. And hey, if it helps justify my software rabbit holes, all the better! 😄

So when you spot fresh software posts replacing the old construction threads, you’ll know why—and where we’re headed next.

See you in SOTW!
