Agile for the Solo Developer

I am going to be starting a project soon and plan to use as much of agile methods as I can (CI, TDD etc.). What have been people's experiences doing agile development when working solo? I want to get good practices in place now while its a one person team so when I scale up to having several people the basics are in place.

A facet of Agile would be KANBAN. I would use a KANBAN board to manage your workload and have your TO DO / IN PROGRESS / DONE swimlanes out on a wall. Just put up stickies for what needs to get done.

Also +1 for TDD

TDD is the easiest tool to use in a one person project or, as I do, in a bigger project where developers do debugging/unit testing.

Yes

XP/TDD scales from one to one thousand. Pair programming is optional.
