Re: Slack?

We just set up Slack on our team with just team leads and it's going great so far. We're going to add all team members soon.

My favorite part is the integrations - we use Trello for a Scrum-like experience, and it posts to Slack every time a board is updated. Same for when a new revision is pushed to GitHub. It's great.

I should mention that I pushed for us to use Slack because we were having communication issues with our team leads. I would email and text them and still barely get replies. With Slack you can mention someone and have it notify their phone and get their attention pretty quickly. You can also search Slack!
