that successful apps often provide a new kind of data structure, that makes them suitable for many purposes
And I'd argue that that is also a major reason when apps fail: they force people to change their existing ways of thinking and aren't able to "recruit" enough users/customers.
Frankly I wasn't that big on trello and still have major issues with it. For example, when juggling multiple boards, I still don't really know where to begin my workflow. I still don't really know how to see casually what all has been going on across my boards...a lot like a facebook feed. These are critical features that keep me from really engaging with it.
Try connecting to Trello through Hojoki.com , it provides a chronological stream-like interface that might be more to your liking. You can filter by Project etc.
