Here's a short video on what it is: https://slack.com/is
- Permissions system
- Ad-free
- Github integration
- Code review/collaboration
- File management
- Map prototyping/diagram collaboration
- To Do lists
- A few more channels to improve organization, including an emergency channel for staff to get ahold of Apophis and I (and one that we have enabled notifications on our phones)
- Web-based. No client download needed, unless you want to use the client (I do)
- Compatible on all major OSs
- And a metric fuck-ton more.
Here's a great article on some other cool things that can be done with it: https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/slack-tips/
We need everyone to reply here with the email they'd like to use to sign up for Slack so we can send out invites to the team page.
(If you haven't already given it...) Please post your email in a reply below or PM it to me.
Note: This email will be visible to all staff members in your Slack profile - NOT to the general public - and most staff can see other staff's emails on the forum now anyway. Just letting you know in case for whatever reason you want to use a separate email. Just make sure it's one you can log in to for verification/password resets.
