NOT ON THE CURRENT EDITION
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions, it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar.

Trial
Pair programming continues to be an essential technique for us, because it helps improve code quality and spread knowledge within a team. Although it’s best done in person, our distributed teams have explored tools to make remote pairing as pleasant and effective as possible, such as Tuple, Visual Studio Live Share, Code With Me and general-purpose chat and conferencing tools. The latest tool in the space that's caught our attention is Pop (formerly Screen). Coming from the founders of Screenhero, it supports multi-person screen sharing, annotations and high-quality audio/video. Some of our teams have used it extensively for pair programming and remote working sessions and report positively on their experience.
