DEEPDIVE FOOD FOR THOUGHT Release Date: August 2013 Usage Data: 30,000+ teams using Slack Platform/Tech: Mac, iOS, Android, Web browser Features: File sharing, real time discussions, conversation and top archives, complete history search Everyday, emails arrive and clutter your inbox. Communications are easily lost or forgotten as mail piles up. Slack was conceived by Tiny Speck Company, who was searching for a truly efficient method of professional communication. Unlike email, Slack allows team members to share ideas in real time. Chat rooms are “hash-tagged” to specific topics, where everyone can share files and links. Slack can also host non-employees for collaboration on dedicated projects. Larger corporations will probably shy away from Slack because communication is naturally more relaxed and open. Slack is a multi-platform app, featuring real-time communication, topic search, and file sharing history. 8ninths uses Slack and we love it. Slack us!
