Team 694 has been using Slack for a year now and it's been great (partially because of the fact that we had previously been using email). Slack is actually designed to be used by teams and can be set to send desktop notifications to users. The challenge, of course, is making sure that people are constantly active and available to be reached by slack. To this end, for anyone who didn't know, most browsers allow you to pin tabs so that they stay open and can't be closed by default, making it easy to make sure slack is always open.

We also implemented angry yelling as a solution for members not being online enough XD
