How we - the Kims - use Basecamp at home

I would be using Basecamp too if not for the $20 a month fee. Can someone at Trello write a similar post on how Trello can be used at home?

This is basically an ad for Basecamp Personal, which is $25 once. Maybe that would be appropriate for your use case?

We've been using Asana for our personal tasks. Free for < 15 people, and most of the same functionality.

Thanks for reminding me of Asana. I was really impressed by a demo video I saw while they were in beta. I applied for the beta on behalf of the small company I was working for at the time. I never heard anything back.

Even after it came out of invite only I never heard anything.... strange.

Elusive critter.

http://basecamp.com/pricing: "Pricing Starts at $1/day", so, no.

Search, hit: https://basecamp.com/personal "... $25 per project. Pay once, no recurring fees."

But: "Basecamp Personal is offered exclusively to existing Basecamp users (or anyone with a 37signals ID). You don't have to be the owner of a Basecamp account - you only have to be a user on a Basecamp account. We plan to open Basecamp Personal up to the wider public in a few months."

If you sign up for a free trial you get a 37id which you keep after canceling your trial.

Basecamp personal doesn't offer the calendar he talks about though.

Trello has one big failing. It doesn't support multiple accounts. You can't have separate personal and work accounts without repeatedly logging out and back in again. Mobile is even worse since logging out and in is way more painful (assuming a decent password).

I've responded to Trello employees comments a few times when they mention using it for both work and personal, and it appears they just use their personal accounts for work stuff.
