One of the tips in the book is "No Phone Calls," which mentions Basecamp:
I am not the type of person who uses the phone a lot. I’ve learned very early to transfer complete business related communication to email. Written trace of a correspondence is much more practical, because you can keep track of who said what and when. Tools like Basecamp just brought it up to a higher level.
