I totally agree with the idea that teams should remove blockers as they come up. If someone on my team runs into a blocker 10 minutes after the standup, I hope for everyone's sake that they don't wait until tomorrow's standup to say something, if only because being blocked for a whole day is not really what you'd call "morale boosting".

I'm not a huge fan of in-person standups, but if you're going to do them really make sure they're useful and efficient. I worked at a small startup once where the entire company (~12 people) did a daily standup, which meant listening to what the salespeople were doing every day, and then telling them which bugs I was fixing. Overall pretty useless.
